The Right To Go Insane Lyrics
I barely get to the graveyard shift on time
After pulling another grueling 9 to 5
I live from credit card to check
The paper money's whirling by
And I hardly just
Just barely only just survive
I'm living on the edge
Reality is teetering
My mind is on the brink
How will I face the day tomorrow
If I can't make it through today
I've got nothing left to lose but my sanity
And the right to go insane
I've got nothing left to lose but my mind
I've got nothing left to choose
So I think I'll go insane
My stomach aches
Insufficient funds
My cheeks are gaunt
And my guts are overdrawn
My head pounds
Starvation's giving me the shakes
Too much squalor
Too much pressure
Now I'm getting pissed
I'm living on the edge
Reality is teetering
My mind is on the brink
How will I face the day tomorrow
If I can't make it through today
I've got nothing left to lose but my sanity
And the right to go insane
I've got nothing left to lose but my mind
I've got nothing left to choose
So I think I'll go insane
After pulling another grueling 9 to 5
I live from credit card to check
The paper money's whirling by
And I hardly just
Just barely only just survive
Reality is teetering
My mind is on the brink
If I can't make it through today
I've got nothing left to lose but my sanity
And the right to go insane
I've got nothing left to choose
So I think I'll go insane
Insufficient funds
My cheeks are gaunt
And my guts are overdrawn
My head pounds
Starvation's giving me the shakes
Too much squalor
Too much pressure
Now I'm getting pissed
Reality is teetering
My mind is on the brink
If I can't make it through today
I've got nothing left to lose but my sanity
And the right to go insane
I've got nothing left to choose
So I think I'll go insane

The music video was BADASS.
SERIOUSLY. DRIVING A TANK?! HELLS TO THE YEAH.
THAT AND THE SONG IS AMAZING.
Where the hell did you get that idea? It's about the everyday American citizen. (I hate saying that because it sounds weird, and there is no such thing as an 'Everyday' or an 'Average' citizen.)
About an American citizen being wiped out by the recession, and has nothing left to lose but his sanity, and nowone can take away his right to go insane
What is ur idea about the video recently released ... ???

Freaking bad as bass intro..!
Its about killdozer. Shawn Nelson, its a pretty sad story. They screwed that go over pretty bad. I honestly don't blame him lol. They all deserved it
Well as most people know, the song is about Shawn Nelson the guy who drove a tank in San Diego in 1995 and was shot but I personally love the first part cause I HATE the graveyard shift especially that I pull a 11 to 7
its about daves recent marriage his sanity was just barely hanging on check out the music video itll make more sense
this song is about a guy released from prison. His best friend ends up being a young child
