Been pounded by the powers that be

Stripped of everything that is me

Lookin' back I'm being chased by my ignorance

And up ahead there ain't nothing but a fence

Right now I'm hanging on

To my friends and the ones I love

Time's still wasting on

With pain below and above

Been told that Jesus is the way to see

Go out and join a religious ministry 

Well you can lick my fuckin' rod

‘Cuz I believe in a merciful God

Right now I'm hanging on 

To my friends and the ones I love

Time's still wasting on

With pain below and above

I know when it's my time to live

You see I only got one life to live

And there's only so much that I have to give

Future's not as dark as it seems

If you just hold onto your dreams

Right now I'm hanging on 

To my friends and the ones I love

Time's still wasting on

With pain below and above
