[Verse 1]

We were doomed from the start as starters are

Why am I doing this?

Digging my own grave though it's shallow, I would lie in it

Work down in the basement in the dark after we crash your car

Hoping fast that the arrow hits the mark so you know who we are

Please keep the reporters at bay

This is a matter of life and death

But I deal with things like this every day

Please keep the reporters at bay

You never do what I tell you to

You never do what I say

[Chorus]

We've been hurting a long time trying hard for this

We all have sizable scars, we got it

You'd break it all apart, we got it

We can make it work like this, like this, like this

[Verse 2]

Yes we are a bullet in the heart and the message sent

Always dragging your feet over sand and over hot cement

Make a list of your favorites, write it down, make it legible

A problem we're always facing, we never rest

You either push or pull

Please keep the crowd under control

This is a matter of life and death and we're not prepared

I just want you to know

Please keep the crowd under control

This is the weight of my conscience

This is our all time low

[Chorus]

I see my baby

She's starry eyed

I feel my bones break all the time

I see my baby

She's starry eyed

She follows

Don't call me a god

I see my baby

She's starry eyed

I feel my bones break all the time

I see my baby

She's starry eyed

She follows

Don't call me a unkind

[Chorus X2]
