Bad Listener Lyrics
[Intro]
You say my vision's not a vision at all
There's no degree in rock 'n' roll
Say it's a waste of time
Say I'll never get a real shot
I'll be bangin' my head 'til my brain rots
I'll be bangin' my head 'til my brain rots
[Verse 1]
I feel the energy from my head to my feet
Is it anger or passion empowering me?
I know talk's not cheap, I'm done grinding my teeth
Time to slap you in the face with reality
[Pre-Chorus]
No structure, no prisoners
I'm not deaf, I'm just a real bad listener
[Chorus]
No structure, no prisoners
I'm not deaf, I'm just a real bad listener
No structure, no prisoners
I'm not deaf, I'm just a real bad listener
[Verse 2]
We've been deceived by the powers that be
We're sold out to perfection, but it will not come cheap
Maybe I love it, I'd rather believe
I'm just breaking the surface and you will never stop me
[Pre-Chorus]
No structure, no prisoners
I'm not deaf, I'm just a real bad listener
[Chorus]
No structure, no prisoners
I'm not deaf, I'm just a real bad listener
No structure, no prisoners
I'm not deaf, I'm just a real bad listener
[Bridge]
You say my vision's not a vision at all
There's no degree in rock 'n' roll
Say it's a waste of time
Say I'll never get a real shot
I'll be bangin' my head 'til my brain rots
[Chorus]
No structure, no prisoners
I'm not deaf, I'm just a real bad listener
No structure, no prisoners
I'm not deaf, I'm just a real bad listener

It was hard for a lot of people in my life to understand what I wanted to do with my life, as in being in a rock band and involved in music. No matter what other people said, I was like, “This is what I do.” This whole life as a musician is different to understand for most people.
