No Thanks - Uniform Choice

Deliberately put your head in a mindless state

Say without the crutch you can’t relate

Intoxicated you do stupid things

Things you don’t mean things you wished could be changed

Drink it down say it’s for the best

Bottle in the hand just like all the rest

Still you do it when you know it’s wrong

But it’s what’s accepted so you feel strong

Tell me, is it really worth it

Fuck it, to turn your brain to shit

My advice, why don`t you stop and think

Please man, it’s ok not to drink

If drinking’s what it take to be accepted

I’d rather stay aware and be rejected

I know what it takes to keep my head on straight

Putting shit in my mind and body is not the way

I don’t need the drugs, I don’t need a crutch

My mind is all I’ll ever need to stay in touch

You can laugh but you’ll get yours

Reason an excuse for your pressure

Finally, you understand

Drinking doesn’t make you a man

Not me, I know what’s smart

In touch, I’ll always be alert

Waiting do you feel better, does it make you

Feel good when you drink

Now you laugh and today your happy but

It’s not as funny as you think

You can do it now and still enjoy it

The people that care are all still here

But one day when you’re laughing, you’ll

Turn around and no one will be standing there

Staring beyond for what it' worth

Looking into faces where I see hurt

As the grain goes in you start to change

Searching for excuse and discovering pain

It’s time you open your eyes and let reality through

Fight the bitter wind that has bitten you

A clear mind is all you’ll ever need

For those are none as blind as those who will not see
