whispering into my ear
tell me things i want to hear
right before you disappear
right before you disappear
i dont think i have to say
you make me want to go away
and meet you in a different place
ill see you when we're face to face
i never feel like ill fit in
because its hell inside my skin
im atoning for these sins
for a life i didnt live
i dont want to burn a bridge
but you cant help me build a new one
one more trip around the sun
and the pain has just begun
whats the point of love
whats the point of art
when the world we know
begins to fall apart

promises just out of reach
and now im grinding down my teeth
and the outlook seems so weak
and you know i hate my voice
but ive got no other choice
its my only outlet
and my legs all turned to rubber
storms coming and i know i better run for cover
or get pulled under
like a cat locked up in a house
ive been chasing the same old mouse
always hoping for someone else
and im up all night with the chills
and i just dont have the will
cause its kill or be killed
and my brain all turned to rubber
i got these thoughts and theyve got me smothered
and my legs all turned to rubber
i cant stop dreaming better run for cover
or get pulled under
and my legs all turned to rubber
storms coming and i know i better run for cover
and my brain all turned to rubber
ive got these thoughts
and theyve got me smothered

we were baptized
in the heat and the ash
for writing blank checks
our bodies could not cash
were set in motion
by the spin of the earth
we only have what
we decide were worth
but these recollections inside my head
are getting less and less accurate
im set adrift in a sea of light
so give me something to keep me bright
in all the depths of
all your darkest dreams
did you ever wonder
if theres reasons for those screams
a single moment
and it all makes sense
that were the only ones
to come to our defense
does it take our souls being ripped from
the only place that ever felt like home
to feel anything close to what we felt
when we werent so alone
if our bodies
are really temples
then whys it feel so good
to tear them down
if our bodies
are really this fragile
then were only guests
inside these houses anyhow

stroke of genius
and then i get distracted
and now the light bulb turns off again
i got ideas
and then they get away from me
now i dont think i remember them
remote controlling
the volume of my voice
as i nod my head yes and feel indifferent
every conversations
a hostage situation
i just want to watch from a distance
im always so preoccupied
whats it like to feel good inside
i want to be focused i want to be calm
i want to be open to just go along
its always like this in my head
a firecracker in my bed
theres better ways to say whats wrong
but im irrational so heres this song
no weight to my words
pretend ive been heard
so i can just let it go
my mind is everywhere else
on autopilot of self
i hope that nobody knows
keep up appearances
smile and act endearing
but never let them ever get close
self preservation kicks in
go on vacation return
feel even more like a ghost
im always so preoccupied
whats it like to feel good inside
i want to be focused i want to be pure
i want to be open with nothing to fear
its always like this in my head
a firecracker in my bed
theres better ways to say whats wrong
but im irrational so heres this song
