Rest assured I have been

Contemplating the end

This regression of life has been gaining speed

And I'll defy your own screams

And litter the airways

But I still claim to be deaf

I will not let the light in

I will claim to be naive

I will trust only those that turn their backs and walk away

And it is unfortunate but a tortoise will never abandon his shell

Never abandon his love of home

But I still claim to be deaf

I will not let the light in

I will claim to be naive

I will trust only those that turn their backs and walk away

This is where the burden takes us back

The drones have medicated me

This is where the burden takes us back
