Lyrics
(didn't know how to drive)
(I've worn out all my fixes)
(I've burned through all)
There's a vicious man inside of me
Who'd chip my bones and break my teeth
To splinter off the parts of me
That beg my brain to quit
There's a fragile lad with both arms tied
A paper heart and eyes fixed wide
Who'd gladly trade the bright blue sky
For half his daily fix
And tellin' me, Oh
We're who you are, you're nothing more
You'll stay here, sick, until you're old
You'll be found out, you'll be alone
And that's the end of it
There's a rabid dog in both my hands
Who wrecks my room and steals my plans
And rips out all the common sense
That I've got left in me
There's an anxious pup with parasites
A rotting tooth, and metal pipe
Who can't get by without blue light
And favorite brand of treat
And tellin' me, Oh
We're who you are, you're nothing more
You'll stay here, sick, until you're old
You'll be found out, you'll be alone
And that's the end of it
(I've had this with me since I)
(Didn't know how to drive)
(I've worn out all my fixes)
(I've burned through all my lies)
(I've spent like half my money)
(I earned from Jesus Christ)
(I'm sick of running from it)
(I'm sick of wasting time)
But there's an older soul, I know he's there
Who keeps his word and cuts his hair
And severs off the vicious man
And takes his kids to church
There's a stronger man, the former lad
Who frees his arms and builds his back
With greater hope than all his past
Who knows what pain is worth
Tellin me, Oh!
We're who you are, you'll break the mold
You'll see it through until you're old
You'll know you've never been alone
And that's the end of it
(I've had this with me since I)
(Didn't know how to drive)
(I've worn out all my fixes)
(I've burned through all my lies)
(I've spent like half my money)
(I earned from Jesus Christ)
(I'm sick of running from it)
(I'm sick of wasting time)
