Coal City Blues Lyrics by The Menzingers

A Lesson in the Abuse of Information Technology

2007

Never thought I'd write about how I've fallen
So insincere, I might as well stab myself in the face
Drag me kicking and screaming from this place
These friends I've got you'd never think I would feel so alone
Cry myself to wake, fall asleep for days
Take a blood oath with the kitchen sink

Worthless are a memory, real only skin-deep
Product of insomnia, to fall asleep

I appreciate the genius in a metaphor
In 5 years where will it get you? A self absorbing fool
The catastrophic wheel side reverie
Am I so vain to think you'd want to hear me?
Sing of boundaries and borders
And delinquent memories
The catastrophic wheel side reverie

Worthless are a memory, real only skin-deep
Product of insomnia, to fall asleep
