It's a venting song that contains everything Chris finds wrong with the world and everything that isn't a part of Chris. The approach is from Scapegoat of Atmosphere (great band!) by using "it's the ___" pattern. The last line was also created by atmosphere and not us. |

Story Behind the Song
I was in Drawing and Painting class in my Senior year of high school, when suddenly the first few lines came to me. I had to write it down and I continued to just flow with it and perfect it for the next few days. We recorded it in 1 take--taking approximately 20 minutes to edit the song and save...
The motivation was created from Atmosphere's list of what is wrong w/ the world and his blaming everything else, but my own observations and disturbances ultimately was the reason for the creation of this song.

Scapegoat II (design of atmosphere - "scapegoat")
--------------
written by: Chris TANNER
it's the rageful aggravation / it's the safe hesitation
it's the mass masturbation / it's the verbal constipation
it's the lifetime dedication / it's the wrong medication
it's the locked-up nerves / it's the superior nerds
it's the nervous, childish stages
it's the thick book of blank pages
it's the fake role models who pose as sages
it's these white walls--really cages
it's this suffering world
it's the untouchable, plastic girls
it's the priceless houses, pointless pearls
it's the wasted referrals
it's the precious hobos
it's the arrogant, rich mofos
it's the same recycled spit
it's your everlasting, pretentious clique
it's the universal hatred
it's the time we've wasted
it's the unnoticed politicians
it's the contradicting Christians
it's the cycle of pointless missions
it's this life of fiction
it's your own contradiction, wrong values and definitions
it's teenagers' begging for attention
it's our love for things we'll never dare mention
it's the pointless, deadly bitchin'
it's the times of life lessons when we refuse to listen
it's the alternative teenagers' acting depressed
it's the wrong parts of life that we've repressed
it's the endless years of friendship, then betrayal
it's the pouring heart into unanswered fan mail
it's the innocent in jail
it's the elders afraid of death and hell
it's the population becoming trained robots
it's the missing parts of childhood within every cop
it's the people trying to act 'deep'
it's the kids' wearing shoes too big for their feet!
it's the passion we can't keep, unable to accept defeat!
it's the need to be amongst the elite
it's the fight for the meat, it's the need to be complete!:
[it's the selfishness to only care about our own problems
[it's how we expect everyone else to solve them
it's the unread tombstones, the unnecessary cell phones
it's the lost fathers and broken homes
it's the prefabricated songs
it's the strive to create clones
it's the death by never-paid loans
it's the UNCONQUERABLE HORMONES!
it's the empire kids
it's the mouth full of jizz
it's undeservingly getting kissed
it's the act of (never) being missed
it's impressing people we'll never see
it's the quest to be free
it's as far as i can see...it's 'reality'
FUCK IT! it's everything but me
