  1. "Tell me what's happening
  2. Stop the wheels from turning
  3. Hours go by without a word
  4. Now it's all alright?
  5. Counting down the minutes
  6. Since you answered my call
  7. And told me it's alright
  8. My clock's headed into overtime"
  9. Where's the benefit?
  10. Where's your frame of mind?
  11. There's no pot of gold at the end
  12. No treasures to find
  13. Hello, scatterbrain
  14. "What's the weather like
  15. Now that you're many moons away?
  16. Weeks slip by with nothing
  17. Same as it ever was
  18. You'd be winning medals
  19. In camoflage expertise,
  20. 21st century nomad
  21. Sheltered life on the lam
  22. Tempting sinners on the go
  23. Further out of sight
  24. Ruining your fun"
  25. Ruining my life
  26. Stitching up the wounds
  27. In my back where you dug your knife
  28. I'm the one at fault
  29. "And I'm the one you spite"
  30. (The one you spite)
  31.  
  32. You sit on your goddamn throne of lies
  33. Handing out orders to the lackeys beneath
  34. Forcing them to trudge through the heavy winter snow
  35. Endorsing rules, unjust and cruel - brevity forever grows
  36. As you get further away from the simpleton:
  37. They don't ever have to know
  38. That you're just a beacon of never-ending suffering
  39. That you're just so weakened without condescending sputtering
  40.  
  41. But I see through the shell of your hell, your facade
  42. Lost its spell, the bravado was quelled in my eyes
  43. And I know who you are, what you feel - I see the scars
  44. Down the well of inspirado you've had covered up for many years
  45. It's alright, I understand that you're unwell and upset
  46. Every night, your deep cries cover up your fears (and you)
  47. Can't swallow the pain hovering over where you stand
  48. So you exile anyone you can who so much as asks you why
  49. And I'm not gonna sit here as you paint the target on my back
  50.  
  51. Packin' my stuff, gettin' ready to go
  52. It's the simple little things that'll really show
  53. How much I mean to you
  54. How much I have to go through
  55. And it's admirable an effort just to see
  56. How you can handle your situation without me
  57. When I've moved on miles away
  58. When I'm not around to play
  59.  
  60. So when you see me on the street
  61. And the town ain't kissing your feet
  62. Will you finally admit defeat
  63. And fucking go?
  64. When you see me on the news
  65. And you see I ain't stuck in my blues
  66. Will you get your traveling shoes
  67. And fucking go?
  68.  
  69. I just don't get how you could be
  70. Such a hopeless selfish freak
  71. Bringing down all of those around you
  72. Bringing in the wrecking crew
  73. And you say with a smile that it'll all be okay
  74. And I'm only bluffing, I ain't really going away
  75. Only time will tell the end, my dear
  76. And only you will end in fear
  77.  
  78. So when you see me on the street
  79. And the town ain't kissing your feet
  80. Will you finally admit defeat
  81. And fucking go?
  82. When you see me on the news
  83. And you see I ain't stuck in my blues
  84. Will you get your traveling shoes
  85. And fucking go?
  86.  
  87. Oh, you really got me good
  88. Oh, you really got me goin'
  89. Oh, you really got me good
  90. And I should've seen it coming
  91. Oh, you really got me good
  92. Oh, you really got me goin'
  93. Oh, you really got me good
  94. And I finally see the lights
  95.  
  96. And you say with a smile that it'll all be alright
  97. And I'm only bluffing, I can't ever leave your sight
  98. Only time will tell the end, my dear
  99. And only the memory will disappear
