Thought I Was Lyrics

Dried up bitter heart
It's been one too many times
But I'm shot and I'm hopeless
Just goin' through the motions

Tried to cut the tie
Just hangin' by a thread
But I ain't right without it
And I'm afraid of consequence

I'M LIVIN' WITH A TWO-FACED DOG
WAITIN' TO TAKE BACK CONTROL
I'M CAUGHT UP IN A WOLD WHERE I LAY
IN THE BED THAT I MADE AS THE LIFE KEEPS BEATIN'

I'M RUNNIN' WITH A BURDEN ON ME
I'M BEIN' THE BEST I CAN BE
WITH THE BITCH LIKE THE SUN WHEN I WAIT
IF IT'S TIME FOR THE WORD TO COME WITH THE DARKNESS

Sick of the me I made
In the doubt I'm always in
It's not about where I'm goin'
But where I've already been

I've severed every one of my ties
Yeah, there's nothing else to do
Now I'm back to where I was before
I got nobody to amuse

FORGET ABOUT THE WAY THAT I FELT ON THE DAY I WAS BORN AND EVERY ONE AFTER
FORGET ABOUT THE HOOK IN MY MOUTH WHEN I THOUGHT I WAS CAUGHT AND IT WAS ALL OVER
THERE AIN'T A WALL, THERE AIN'T A REASON TO STOP THIS CLIMBIN'
THERE AIN'T ENOUGH VOICE BUT, GOD-DAMN, GO AHEAD AND LET IT ALL COME OUT.

WILL I WAIT - FOREVER?
WILL I WAIT - 'TIL I FEEL ALIVE?
WILL I WAIT - FOREVER?
WILL I WAIT - 'TIL I FEEL ALIVE?
WILL I WAIT - FOREVER?
WILL I WAIT - 'TIL I FEEL ALIVE?

BECAUSE MY BACK AIN'T THE ONLY THING TO THE WALL
I SEE A CHANCE AND I'M GONNA TAKE IT
YEAH, IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I'VE BEEN RIGHT
BUT TOO MANY RIGHTS AND YOU END UP BACK WHERE YOU STARTED
WHERE YOU STARTED, WHERE YOU STARTED

WILL I WAIT - FOREVER?
WILL I WAIT - FOREVER?
WILL I WAIT - 'TIL I FEEL ALIVE?
WILL I WAIT - FOREVER?
WILL I WAIT - 'TIL I FEEL ALIVE?

Middle Class Rut play a visceral brand of alternative rock that echoes the intensity of Jane's Addiction and Refused, the pummeling backbone of Rage Against The Machine and the anthemic post-punk core of The Foo Fighters.

Only in their mid-20s, Middle Class Rut, consisting of Zack Lopez (guitar/vocals) and Sean Stockham (drums/vocals), are already veteran musicians; both guys were core members of Leisure, which was signed to DreamWorks back in 2000 when Sean and Zack were just in their early teens. After Leisure disbanded several years later, Zack and Sean returned to their hometown of Sacramento, California. Hunkering down in their homegrown studio, they started jamming and writing music together. After penning more than 60 songs, their new project, Middle Class Rut, was officially born in December 2006.

The band's first national tour happened in the fall of 2008, when they hit the road with The Receiving End Of Sirens and Envy On The Coast. From the first show of that tour, Middle Class Rut completely destroyed expectations and won over legions of new fans. After seeing the band's intense and
charismatic performance, Alternative Press wrote in its January 2008 issue that "..it's mind-blowing to witness the sheer depth and complexity of the sound these two guys are capable of unleashing on their own, but once the novelty subsides, you're left with incendiary post-rock with visible traces of 90s alternative."

After a series of EP's, Middle Class Rut's debut album 'No Name No Color' was released on October 5 2010 in the US and on November 22 2010 in the UK. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
