Why don't they just let up and leave me be/Aw sh*t, can they see?/I'm in a state…of confusion (repeat)

They say there's now way out but there's no way in and from the very bottom I have to begin, I like to be confused, it makes life fun, you never know what comes next, you don't have to run

My room's a mess and so am I and sometimes, I get too high One day stumbles into the next Take it easy, Man, I'm doin' my best

Why don't they just let up and leave me be/Aw sh*t, can they see?/I'm in a state…of confusion

I wrote these lyrics at age 19, my teen rebellion anthem! State of Confusion: When the elders look at me they see success that could be A proud name upon the wall Well hey Man, that's not me at all

Happy Holidays from State of Confusion!

One of my fav designs of Pat's, for a sticker. It shows his skill at blending clip art with hand drawn art, which he did in many different SOC promotional & merch designs. #punk #Boise #hardcore punk #band

Hoping you had a good New Year's and that the first day of the year finds you well! Yours in Confusion, S*O*C ❤️🤟🎸🥔🥂💥

"I have tried to understand/The nature of your war/But it gets darker and darker/As I see more and more/Just today I heard that/World peace can't be done/But I will try my best/To prove that they are wrong." Pat Schmaljohn, lyrics to the SOC song 'Decency.'#punk #hardcore #nowar
