Soil

[Verse 1: Serj Tankian]

The phoenix he helped create

Out of control, boy without a dad

Shot the gun that startled my life

While I drove him with a forty-five

[Chorus: Serj Tankian]

Friends for years images in red

Blew off his own motherfuckin' head

Confidence, death, insecurity

The men fall unrealized

[Post-Chorus: Serj Tankian]

Unrealized, unrealized, oh

[Verse 2: Serj Tankian]

Making a decision of death while everyone around you pled

Now, you fly in peace I hope, my friend

A man can't avoid what he's meant to do when he's meant to do it

Even if he doesn't really want to

My memories are of fun and friendship

Of weakness within the strength of youth

For reasons undefined, reasons undefined

Reasons undefined, reasons undefined

[Chorus: Serj Tankian]

Friends for years images in red

Blew off his own motherfuckin' head

Confidence, death, insecurity

The men fall unrealized

[Bridge: Serj Tankian]

Don't you realize evil

Lives in the motherfucking skin

Don't you realize that evil

Lives in the motherfucking skin

Don't you realize that evil

Lives in the motherfucking skin

Don't you realize that evil

Lives in the skin

(Unrealized)

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge: Serj Tankian]

Don't you realize evil

Lives in the motherfucking skin

Don't you realize that evil

Lives in the motherfucking skin

[Outro: Serj Tankian]

Why the fuck did you take him away from us you motherfucker?!

Fucker! Fucker!
