- "Tell me what's happening
- Stop the wheels from turning
- Hours go by without a word
- Now it's all alright?
- Counting down the minutes
- Since you answered my call
- And told me it's alright
- My clock's headed into overtime"
- Where's the benefit?
- Where's your frame of mind?
- There's no pot of gold at the end
- No treasures to find
- Hello, scatterbrain
- "What's the weather like
- Now that you're many moons away?
- Weeks slip by with nothing
- Same as it ever was
- You'd be winning medals
- In camoflage expertise,
- 21st century nomad
- Sheltered life on the lam
- Tempting sinners on the go
- Further out of sight
- Ruining your fun"
- Ruining my life
- Stitching up the wounds
- In my back where you dug your knife
- I'm the one at fault
- "And I'm the one you spite"
- (The one you spite)
- You sit on your goddamn throne of lies
- Handing out orders to the lackeys beneath
- Forcing them to trudge through the heavy winter snow
- Endorsing rules, unjust and cruel - brevity forever grows
- As you get further away from the simpleton:
- They don't ever have to know
- That you're just a beacon of never-ending suffering
- That you're just so weakened without condescending sputtering
- But I see through the shell of your hell, your facade
- Lost its spell, the bravado was quelled in my eyes
- And I know who you are, what you feel - I see the scars
- Down the well of inspirado you've had covered up for many years
- It's alright, I understand that you're unwell and upset
- Every night, your deep cries cover up your fears (and you)
- Can't swallow the pain hovering over where you stand
- So you exile anyone you can who so much as asks you why
- And I'm not gonna sit here as you paint the target on my back
- Packin' my stuff, gettin' ready to go
- It's the simple little things that'll really show
- How much I mean to you
- How much I have to go through
- And it's admirable an effort just to see
- How you can handle your situation without me
- When I've moved on miles away
- When I'm not around to play
- So when you see me on the street
- And the town ain't kissing your feet
- Will you finally admit defeat
- And fucking go?
- When you see me on the news
- And you see I ain't stuck in my blues
- Will you get your traveling shoes
- And fucking go?
- I just don't get how you could be
- Such a hopeless selfish freak
- Bringing down all of those around you
- Bringing in the wrecking crew
- And you say with a smile that it'll all be okay
- And I'm only bluffing, I ain't really going away
- Only time will tell the end, my dear
- And only you will end in fear
- So when you see me on the street
- And the town ain't kissing your feet
- Will you finally admit defeat
- And fucking go?
- When you see me on the news
- And you see I ain't stuck in my blues
- Will you get your traveling shoes
- And fucking go?
- Oh, you really got me good
- Oh, you really got me goin'
- Oh, you really got me good
- And I should've seen it coming
- Oh, you really got me good
- Oh, you really got me goin'
- Oh, you really got me good
- And I finally see the lights
- And you say with a smile that it'll all be alright
- And I'm only bluffing, I can't ever leave your sight
- Only time will tell the end, my dear
- And only the memory will disappear
