Lyrics

[Verse 1] You are killing me Mouth is movin' But I cannot hear you speak Life's a tragedy Go on livin' In a world not for the weak Keep your dreams Inside your heart Never let the pressure Tear you apart Truth is whispered On a breath Loud enough to cover The smell of death [Chorus] Never thought too important to mention Livin' through the birth, the birth of tension Never thought too important to mention Livin' with the tension, tension, tension [Verse 2] Don't you understand? Too much tension, snap Then you lose your grip Too many demands Start at birth, snap From the womb, you're ripped Leave your dreams Inside, behind Never had a reason That you'll never find Tension builds Another way Gonna make you all Go away [Chorus] Never thought too important to mention Livin' through the birth, the birth of tension Never thought too important to mention Livin' with the tension, tension, tension [Bridge 1] Too much tension All around Too much tension Bring you down All the pressures In the narrow mind All the reasons You'll never find [Bridge 2] Did you kill your father? Sleep with your mother? Idolize your sister? Were you jealous of your brother? Did ya kick the dog? Were you beat with a strap? Were you really abused? Were you faking all that? Too tense [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] You are killin' me So many ways So little time to think Life's catastrophe Glass is empty And I really need a drink Movin' all so very quick Movin' so fast That it gets me sick Let me out of here Livin' ain't livin' With the tension and the fear [Chorus] Never thought too important to mention Livin' through the birth, the birth of tension Never thought too important to mention Livin' with the tension, tension, tension
