I can't tell you anything you don't already know And I'm really not the type to say, "I told you so." But accidents can always happen, d**h is always near So if you drive to hell and back, don't let the devil steer You may think it's strange that you are living your own d**h So before you go under, you'd better take a deep breath You can only have on shot at life, don't swing and miss Don't put too much trust in anyone, and remember this Underneath the surface, it's much worse than it seems And I can tell you, brother, life ain't just a dream Underneath the surface, you won't have much to say And I can tell you, brother, it's cold inside your grave I could tell you all exactly what you want to hear You're all gonna live forever, nothing more to fear But I don't want to live forever, i'll leave that to you I just want to live until there's nothing else to do Underneath the surface, buried for eternity And I hate to think about just how long that could be Underneath the surface, planted, but you will not grow No roots, no leaves, no seeds of life. Guess that just goes to show Underneath the surface, it's much worse than it seems And I can tell you, brother, life ain't just a dream Underneath the surface, you won't have much to say And I can tell you, brother, it's cold inside your grave Everything you really need is right in front of you Take a big bite out of life, but don't forget to chew You can only have one shot at life, don't swing and miss Don't put too much trust in anyone, and remember this Underneath the surface, we all go insane
