    Song Meaning
    This is a straightforward punk song about hatred for your enemies, and feeling like you can't handle them anymore. The narrator is tired of his "scene," and wants to get away from the people that anger him. In one verse, he even states that he'd rather be in "good company" and hang out by himself. He feels that everything and everyone has gone crazy, and that he's about to go crazy and lose control as well.
    Lyrics
    I'm taking down all my enemies
    'Cause they're all so fucking useless
    A bunch of shit talking drama-queens
    And they're all filled with excuses

    I wanna find me a better scene
    Where it's not the same opinion
    I'd rather go to a funeral
    Than to this high school reunion

    April Fool!
    Thought you're falling in love
    But now you're sucking on a doorknob
    That I slammed in your face
    Life's a cruel crushing bastard crime
    You're a stupid mother fucker
    And you're doing the time

    We're all crazy
    You're all crazy now
    Well we're so crazy
    You've all gone insane
    Loss of control

    Hanging out all by myself
    At least I'm in good company
    Hey isn't that old what's his face
    That I see walking down the street

    I'm gonna hide in the shadows
    Cause I really got nothing to say
    We never had anything in common
    And I never liked you anyway

    April Fool!
    Thought you were falling in love
    But when you're sucking on a doorknob
    That I slammed in your face
    Life's a cruel crushing son of a bitch
    And you're a stupid mother fucker
    Serving shit to the pigs

    We're all crazy
    You're all crazy now
    Well we're so crazy
    You've all gone insane
    Loss of control

    April Fool!
    Thought you're falling in love
    But now you're sucking on a doorknob
    That I slammed in your face
    Life's a cruel crushing bastard crime
    And you're a stupid mother fucker
    And you're doing the time

    We're all crazy
    You're all crazy now
    Well we're so crazy
    You've all gone insane
    Loss of control
