lyrics

Stan, he was a family man
Working for the bank
But God, don't get him angry
He had a problem with his booze
So when he got laid off
He cooked his family into stew
And when the cops came knocking
Stan was on the floor
With a shotgun in his mouth
No one lived there anymore

You get the pit-like feel in your stomach
It's like a black hole
It makes you feel small, feel insignificant
You have no control
Desperate times call for desperate measures
When there's nowhere else left to turn

Hank, desperate for some money
To raise his family
He had two sons and a daughter
But the boys sold and sniffed blow
They got shot up by dealers
Before Hank could ever know
So he tried robbing a liquor store
And got sent straight to jail
His daughter was found overdosed
In the street, so cold and pale

You get the pit-like feel in your stomach
It's like a black hole
It makes you feel small, feel insignificant
You have no control
Desperate times call for desperate measures
When there's nowhere else left to turn

You get the pit-like feel in your stomach
It's like a black hole
It makes you feel small, feel insignificant
You have no control
Desperate times call for desperate measures
When there's nowhere else left to turn
