lyrics

Stop now and give me back all the secrets that you took
I’ll keep it off the record if it keeps me off the hook
I’ve seen your crowd control; I don’t like the way it looks

Who says I’m missing out when I won’t participate?
I sleep beneath your seat and avoid the face-to-face
I’m relaxed
I’m detached
You’ll be lucky if you see me intact.

And as I build my castle to the sky
I wonder why
The clouds have got so low today
And roll out with the tide
I'm watching storms from the other side.

With your illicit imperfections taking hold
You will be the second part of me that I can’t control
I see everyone slow me down
I see the flaws in the system.
When the TV shows all scream your name
Who the fuck are you to pretend you don’t hear them?

And with these dollar pills
I buy my life,
The pesticide
That kills the thoughts that ruin
And destroy me from inside.
I want the day without the night.

And all your problems, they just slow me down.

Watch my troubles get so far away.
