Forget It

there's nothing quite like realizing
you never made a mark in your whole damn life
there's nothing quite like giving in
to the knowledge that you forget you ever had a spark
you never made a splash
except in your mother's womb
you never made a difference
except to your lonely bedroom

why don't you fall down the stairs?
to see if anyone cares?
then you'll know, then you'll know
just what you're worth

your significance is figured by the thickness
of the pile of paperwork that defines your existence
a stack of codes and numbers cataloging the blunder
that your pitiful life has become
go on, plug into their society--they've got neat roles
to print next to your name
no, they're not concerned with identity--
yeah it's a non-entity in their sick game

why don’t you fall down the stairs?
to see if anyone cares?
then you’ll know, then you’ll know
just what you’re worth

no i'm not telling you anything you haven't thought before
i'm just reminding you of what it is that you fought for once

why don't you go grab you gatt?
and show them where you been at?
then they'll see, then they'll see
just who you are
