Official Lyrics[]

Johnny 3 Tears: Sick with myself but I've got no one else
So I give it to myself, it's the only thing that helps
It's the same thing, this pain thing that keeps me from sleeping
And screaming that, God, I must be motherfucking dreaming
And I can rest in peace and at least cease to be
Cease to see those things in me that make me wanna cease to breathe
And cease to need and cease to feed sickness that's in me
This is all that I can be, I can't breathe as I bleed

Deuce: I don't know why I cut myself
God, give me a sign or help
I won't cry, it'll be fine, I'll take my last breath
Push it out my chest till there's nothing left
I know that my mind's near the end
God, I hurt myself and fell
I won't cry, it'll be fine, I'll take my last breath
Push it out my chest till there's nothing left

J-Dog: Have you ever met a living legend, just a real friend
Who planned his end and where do I begin? You said it was pretend
And when the bullet went through, it took more than just you
It took two, it was you, it was me and suddenly
How could someone stand there helpless and then they act so selfish?
You put me through hell with this, so fuck you, let's just end this
And what about our friendship? Oh, what you did was senseless
You thought you found an exit? Like I said, let's end this

Deuce: I don't know why I cut myself
God, give me a sign or help
I won't cry, it'll be fine, I'll take my last breath
Push it out my chest till there's nothing left
I know that my mind's near the end
God, I hurt myself and fell
I won't cry, it'll be fine, I'll take my last breath
Push it out my chest till there's nothing left

Deuce and J-Dog: I just wanna say goodbye
Deuce: Disappear with no one knowing
Deuce and J-Dog: I don't wanna live this lie
Deuce: Smiling to the world unknowing
Deuce and J-Dog: I don't want you to try
You've done enough to keep me going
Deuce: I'll be fine
J-Dog: (I'll be fine)
Deuce: I'll be fine
J-Dog: (I'll be fine)
Deuce and J-Dog: I'll be fine for the very last time

Deuce: I don't know why I cut myself
God, give me a sign or help
I won't cry, it'll be fine, I'll take my last breath
Push it out my chest till there's nothing left
I know that my mind's near the end
God, I hurt myself and fell
I won't cry, it'll be fine, I'll take my last breath
Push it out my chest till there's nothing left

Rumors[]

Since 2007, there has been a popular rumor floating around the internet that this song was written about J-Dog's brother after he committed suicide. Some recall the band talking about this on their MySpace when the song was first released, although there is no proof to this. The band has never addressed the rumors since then, even though the song has been out for ten years. Shady Jeff claims that it wasn’t anybody’s relative that passed but that the guys in the band minus himself all had a close friend they grew up with that took his own life and that it really messed them up. He believes this song was written about that friend.

Trivia[]

  • All standard versions of the album that include this song as a bonus track do not list it as such on the back cover. This makes it a sort of “hidden track”.
