Atrophy

We recently recorded this song for a compilation cd of "Awakenings" punk rock festival. You can listen to it on our myspace, www.myspace.com/thetuxedoconspiracy or preferably at one of our next live gigs. The song called "Atrophy" and below are the lyrics. Something close to the days when you'd buy the cd open the booklet read the lyrics and listen to the songs. Enjoy!

Atrophy

No one wants to carry the burden
No one wants to be followed by ghosts
No one will admit what they have taught
and everyone’s to cool to appreciate what they got
No one wants to be around a freak
And everyone's so special and unique,
Like a paint or a picture
like a brand new trend
No one wants to carry a heart with a leak
And everyone is too cool for the same old beat
Everyone is too cool for the same old beat

All seem worn out
And everything’s so new
Everyone’s full of hate
It’s the way to be cool
I’m fading steady and fast
Like a song on the radio that never meant to last

It’s epidemic this atrophy of feelings
and I’m not saying I’m a saint
I hope all these soon to be gone
like a storm will fade
this song will go away unsung unheard and unspoken
I've seen from crooked buildings praying to die
to buses waving goodnight
maybe it’ll start a brand new craze
or they’ll just call it quits and say it twas a phase
we can’t admit a great defeat
and no one wants to live with a heart with a leak

All seem worn out
And everything’s so new
Everyone’s full of hate
It’s the way to be cool
I’m fading steady and fast
Like a song on the radio that never meant to last
