lyrics

A simple request:
A minute more
An hour more
A second less
What am I existing for
If all I do is slowly waste away?
What a difference
Just another day
Another day

Locked inside this fragile cage
Of a body that is doomed to age and die
And never know the reason why
Screaming into nothingness
Fighting final emptiness
I try
God knows, I try

I struggle with my soul
I want to be made whole
I want to live
I struggle to be free
I want to remain me
I want to live
Let the world burn
Let me live

I feel it near
I see the signs
I watch the time
I feel the fear
Search but never find
Listen, but I just can't seem to hear
Alternative to life we find so dear

Locked inside this fragile cage
Of a body that is doomed to age
And die and never know the reason why
Raging at the end of me
Hating my mortality
It burns
But I know I'll never learn

about

whatever... image

whatever... Cleveland, Ohio

whatever... was a Cleveland band in the 1990s. We opened for lots of great acts (e.g., Jawbox, Bosstones, Samiam) and even had a following of our own. Really, if you went to a Cleveland punk show in the mid-'90s, chances are pretty good you saw us. This is the stuff we were playing early on.

You can also hit either of the below links to buy the band's final album, Youngsters, on Amazon or iTunes. ... more
