Rocking Chair Song

Lyrics

Well I thought it was nothing But somehow that nothing wasn't it And I want you to listen But I'm just a dime-a-dozen angry white man So who really gives a shit? Instilled as a child That something must be special in my head I imagined it like a museum, but it was not It was something else instead Just something else instead With untenable pockets I panicked in work debt slavery I can wear an idiot smile like The ones in romantic comedies And I don't wanna have to kill them I don't wanna have to kill them But I will No, I don't wanna have to kill them I don't wanna have to kill them But I will (But I will) So I realized a vision where I played the piano on a stage And the president smirked at my precious idealism Just a monkey in a different kind of cage And I appreciate my genetics I know my bone structure isn't bad But I'm as paranoid as my mother And just as narcissistic as my dad And I don't wanna have to kill you I don't wanna have to kill you But I will No, I don't wanna have to kill you I don't wanna have to kill you But I will And I don't wanna have to kill you I don't wanna have to kill you, but I will No, I don't wanna have to kill you I don't wanna have to kill you, but I will I had a dream where I carried this rage inside my hands Inside a house I'd never been to, there stood a stranger A mostly unmemorable man Without any warning I picked up a wooden rocking chair I slammed it into his body, over and over and over Until all of his skin began to tear But I had no intention of stopping I continued until everything was red And my brain censored the violence, as he slowly flattened 'Til I could no longer see his head And that's when I heard all the sirens Blaring outside in the street So I ran into the kitchen and grabbed the nearest blade And I began to slice it through my own meat Deeper and deeper and deeper, over and over and over I dragged it into intersecting lines Up and down both my arms as I tried to escape them But my body just wouldn't let me die My body wouldn't let me die My body wouldn't let me die My body wouldn't let me die My body wouldn't let me die My body wouldn't let me die My body wouldn't let me die My body wouldn't let me die My body wouldn't let me die They said, "Honey, save me from yourself" "Save me from yourself, honey" "Honey, save me from yourself" "Save me from yourself, honey" They said, "Honey, save me from yourself" "Save me from yourself, honey" "Honey, save me from yourself" "Save me from yourself, honey"
