Lemme guess the early bird got herself a worm

But now she's bitter and cynical at the rest of the world

She just doesn't understand the hurt

Watching the blood run like paint down the front of her shirt

Now she's in her own world, doesn't say a word

But I can hear her clearly, eye's scream "don't come near me!"

No, this isn't how it ends I know I need a better cause

These laws they wrap around me tend to permeate my tissue soft

But I'll remain strong dammit

Standing on 2 broke legs for as long as I have two

And when the cause calls to me no more

May I fall to the land and return to soil again

Now tell me this, you don't know that much about life, do you

Let me take you underneath my broken wing and ruin it

Cause we are specimens suspended in the gelatin

Studied to no end in the name of progress, but it's evident

Evidence we leave behind is eaten like breadcrumbs

Screams that we echo through these halls hail from dead lungs

I run in place for days to contemplate the actions

But the truth is these patterns more or less resemble madness

And it saddens me to realize it's only been a year

Days extend and sense of self begins to fade

I no longer stand intrepid in the face of my dreamscapes

Cause now I travel inquiery with no gifts for the illiterate

And spit shamelessly in the the face of my incubus

Cause the season of longing is the no longer the hell

That I have slipped into with no way back out

Take my hand, we'll hop the train together

And abandon all this for something better

Remember? How we dreamt of it together

The cold winter night we first spent in my bedroom

Asleep at the helm of another misfortune

Abhorent and sickly, coughing all over what we had

Take me home, this rian isn't stopping

And tomorrow morning the petricore will surly absorb us all

Tossing and turning for these days on end

I just can't get their goddamn nmaes out of my head

Lost more than your acceptance, lost more than my firends

I lost the state of mind that came with my safe childhoods end

X years of age and labeled a cynic

Cause when I look up around me I don't see anything differnt

There are some of us who cannot wait to get pissed

Like carnivores we feed on the flaws in exisance

So stay with me and witness this gross display of innocence

I'll work this machine until it's stripped of it's skin prison

Dying in sunbeams, feeling how you wish to

If only every morning could be this increadible

There has to be some way of cheating the system

Someone rig the axel, grease up the pistons

Don't just settle, shoot for maxcimum efficiency

If practice makes perfect we'll get this eventually

Someone pound the nails out, tak the frame apart

I hear inside lies a begrudgingly still betaing heart

Let's take it out to study it, run around, have fun with it

'Til One of us trips and breaks the damn thing in their pocket

But we'll glue it back on because it's moms favorite part

And today is not the day that I get grilled for your mistakes

Cause if we don't try hard enough the memories depart

And you will never interupt the oceans tides with your name again

(Take my hand we'll hop the train together

And abandon all this for something better)

Now there's no wa to folow yellow bricks out of Oz

No more backwood trails around the loss

(Take my hand we'll hop the train together

And abandon all this for something better)

Cause wecan't keep the past, can't create fact

So hold on for life to the pieces that you have

(Take my hand we'll hop the train together

And abandon all this for something better)

And so good riddence on whoever robberd us of this

Searching for a purpose in the rubble of the obelisk

(Take my hand we'll hop the train together

And abandon all this for something better)

There's gotta be something better
