[Verse 1]

Start a commotion

Engine emotion

Rev the city streets

Trust it's been broken

Don't offer us tokens

The rug cannot be cleaned

[Bridge]

Sisters of mercy

Join a sorority

The sonny played the blues

There was far too much to choose

[Chorus]

Why do i feel like the world is closin' in on me

Don't want to hear what

They declare will set me free

Read all the wrongs with the right lexus

But i still couldn't see

Oh i still couldn't see the path

[Verse 2]

Surfin' the highway

I want it my way

Why does the caged bird often sing

Feel melancholy

Feel so ridiculous

In this prison made of skin

All my bad habits

Thread to white rabbits

And led me down the hole

As i 'lept across the coals

[Chorus]

Why do we feel like the world is closin' in on me

Don't want to hear what

They declare will set me free

Read all the wrongs with the right lexus

But i still couldn't see

Oh i still couldn't see the path

[Verse 3]

Why you want to feel this way

Don't you feel so all alone

Promise that you'll summon me

If this life becomes too cold

Mama says its alright

Keeps her gun at her right

Watches evening news

Drinks herself to sleep

You can't stop it you can't start it

If your routine deathly lathargic

Just know its never your fault

You know not what

You do, you do, you do

[Verse 4]

New year's resolution

Let's start an institution

Manufacture gold

Pacifier's dried up

Hell is frozen over

We all do what we're told

[Bridge]

Sisters of mercy

Join a sorority

Sonny played the blues

There was far too much to choose

[Chorus]

Why does it feel like the world is closin' in on me

Don't want to hear what

They declare will set me free

Read all the wrongs with the right lexus

But i still couldn't see

Oh i still couldn't see the path
