Lyrics

[Verse 1] Abandoned child, no one's baby Ward of the state, a human mistake Institutional living will drive you crazy [Chorus] Grey buildings, grey people, grey food, grey walls Grey buildings, grey people, grey food, grey walls [Verse 2] Life has just started, roommate is retarded Friends, you got none, treated just like scum Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide Ain't no love, ain't no pity Stole me away from my mama's titty [Chorus] Grey buildings, grey people, grey food, grey walls Grey buildings, grey people, grey food, grey walls [Verse 1] Abandoned child, no one's baby Ward of the state, a human mistake Institutional living will drive you crazy [Chorus] Grey buildings, grey people, grey food, grey walls Grey buildings, grey people, grey food, grey walls [Verse 2] Life has just started, roommate is retarded Friends, you got none, treated just like scum Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide Ain't no love, ain't no pity Stole me away from mama's titty [Chorus] Grey buildings, grey people, grey food, grey walls Grey buildings, grey people, grey food, grey walls [Bridge] Turned eighteen, see any hope? Think you'll fit, don't give a shit Forget your past, 'cause nothin' lasts See some die, see shallow lies No goin' back No goin' home It's all pitch black [Verse 3] Stuck on drugs, goin' drinkin' Feelin' nuts, goin' crazy Feel like shit, feelin' queer They got a label for this misbehavior Call this livin'? Goin' drinking Call this livin'? I think I'm dying There's nowhere to go There's nowhere to hide There's no one to trust There's no one to confide in [Verse 4] No goin' back No goin' home It's all pitch black Big Brother's a spy and he's watching you So do as your told and fit in the mold He'll treat you cold, he'll eat your soul He's your guardian angel, he's the master of control [Chorus] Grey buildings, grey people, grey food, grey walls Grey buildings, grey people, grey food, grey walls [Outro] No going back No going home It's all pitch black And there's no God in heaven, so get off your knees
