M2x - The Jason Story lyrics

rate me

You lived by a dream but that dream got shattered/

you tried to move on but your life don't really matter/

cold-hearted you try to cling on to the last piece of string holding this thing strong/

you wait and you wait but the rescue it seems distant/

nobody's listening to the pain that you're resisting/

sitting on the sidewalk you see no kind of outlook/

people walking by seem to look but look away at the same time/

just like with a bum and it makes you feel like one/

you're depressed/ nothing can help it it's a mess/

like a song/ of heartbreak you long to be back in that saddle/

rididing to victory after a defeat/

but the future looks grim for you to stand on two feet/

cuz you've given up already/ and your powers declining steady/

so instead you go mad and try to take your whole life/

along with your daughter, your son and your own wife/

Chorus:2X

Every action we take determines our lives/

Every fraction of faith re-assures us that fights/

Is needed for truth but we abuse it we loot/

and the price that we pay is the failure of few/

Verse 2:

Let's go back and have a look at the beginning of this tragedy/

Jason was a young man who believed in magic he/

saw it as the love he needed to stay away from drugs/

cuz the neighbourhood he lived in it was crowded with slugs/

so he painted a mental picture of what he set as goal/

full performing magician in stadiums full of fans of his work those were his plans/

never did he expect the weight of his fam/ first came his wife Janet/

She wanted to settle/

have a nice little house in the suburbs with a kettle/

slowly heating up for the afternoon tea/

Jason agreed but inside he wanted free/

wanted to flee from this life and just go out and be/

Jason became resentful/

more for every day passed/

everywhere he'd look he'd see people having a blast/

he wanted in too/

he wanted to puke after a crazy party with a few of his best mates too/

Chorus:

Verse 3:

After about a year or two came his daughter Sue/

Jason was happy for a while before he knew/

That this was the end/

he could no longer pretend/

that he was a free man/

he was now a family dad/

mad at his mistake he tried to play the roll/

but it took its toll/

and Jason begun to smoke weed/

to relieve his stress and the pain of his failure/

started to drink heavily, like it was his saviour/

Janet started wondering what was wrong with him/

when he walked out in the evening he wasn't wearing his ring/

but they had sex frequently and after nine months/

came his son Jacob, the burdon was a tonne/

Jason became violent started punshing his wife/

"how the hell could you do this to me you stupid dyke"/

Jacob watch out now don't walk too far away/

daddy's got a knife that you may come in and play with/

Chorus:
