Perpetual deja-vu, isn't that enough?

Blank looks, television drama, and no fear Let another person f*** with your mind I bet you'll become the person who will f*** in time Man I just stopped caring, the music is blaring I feel you glaring, why won't you STOP STARING?!

Hope you enjoyed Idle Hands by Stone Sour. I'll see if I can get Black John up at some point. I'd also appreciate any corrections. Especially for Jim's part in the Chorus, I'd love to have that down perfectly.
