I was lost for a while I was knee deep in denial I was lost for a while Without my stride my step my style It took a lot of digging up bones In my backyard nightly I'm half a bottle in I'm just now feeling feisty A few things could slip So you'll have to forgive me No more walking the line I'm getting downright frisky I've kept it clean, but now it's high time For every dirty, awful word You've had your chance to make your peace But now I'm gonna make sure this hurts Yeah, this is Shock This is Awe This is War This is the 'f** You' to Richard Reines Who told me I should lose some weight
Come to think of it, Payne, you too You screwed our fans, so we screwed you And up to this point, I think we've been pretty cool About losing tours to bands with only half of our pull I wouldn't call it bitter, but I've grown to feel slighted There's a party going on, we're living life uninvited I've kept it clean, but now it's high time For every dirty, awful word You've had your chance to make your peace But now I'm gonna make sure this hurts Yeah, this is Shock This is Awe This is War Yeah, this is Shock This is Awe This is War
