Lyrics

I USED TO HAVE ANXIETY ABOUT THE EARTH FALLING INTO THE SUN IT KEPT ME UP LATE AT NIGHT I FOCUSED ON IT SO MUCH THAT I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE WHEN THE EARTH FELL INTO THE SUN SOMETIMES THE RIVER'S FLOODING SOMETIMES THE FIRE'S RUSHING SOMETIMES YOU DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE DRENCHED OR SCORCHED ALIVE SOMETIMES RETROSPECT IS ALL THE JOY YOU'LL GET SO SIT DOWN AND STARE AT YOUR PLATE MISSING YOUR DAYS WHERE YOU COULD'VE MADE A NAME FOR THE PAST THAT NEVER STAYED BUT IF IT REALLY NEEDS A TITLE THEN I GUESS THAT WE'LL ALL WRITE DOWN THAT THESE WERE THE GLORY DAYS ROMANTICISING ROOFTOPS WHEN REALLY ALL IN TRUTH THEY'RE JUST CERAMIC SLATES NO ONE SAW ME CRYING TO THE SUMMER WIND AFTER SEEING YOU WERE DYING BUT IT WAS ALL JUST MAKE PRETEND I WISH YOUR CHEST WAS HOME SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE YOU HURT ME TOO BAD BUT I SHOULDN'T PUT THE BLAME ON THE BLOOD OF THE COMMON MAN IT'S JUST THE NATURE OF THEATRE DAMNED SPOTLIGHTS WILL NEVER FIZZLE OUT PLEASE FUCK ME SO HARD I DON'T MAKE A SOUND WAS THIS ROPE MADE IN A SWEATSHOP? LAST I HEARD OF HER SHE WAS STILL SHEDDING THE FUR AND UP ON THE KITCHEN BENCH LIKE THE APPLIANCE THAT SHE WAS I HOPE THAT LILY LIVES IN YOUR IMAGE I KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOU DID DON'T YOU THINK THAT I'LL FORGET SURE SHE'S GETTING VINYL PRESSED BUT SHE'S STILL DEPRESSED SO WHERE'S YOUR SELF RESPECT? I HAD A TALK WITH YOUR DEEPEST IDOL AND IT SEEMS TO ME THAT YOU CAN SLEEP AT ALL SO WHERE'S YOUR SELF RESPECT? IF YOU'RE LIVING WITHOUT A LIST OF PEOPLE YOU WANT DEAD STOP WASTING AIR AND RUNNING SCARED LEARN TO TIE A KNOT OR LEARN TO TAKE A KNOT CAUSE EVERY DAY WE'RE RUNNING FROM GOD AND ALL THE BLOOD YOU'VE SHED IS JUST IN RETROSPECT FIND YOURSELF SOME HELP OR FIND YOURSELF SOME HEAD THIS IS ALL A SYMPTOM OF A HIGHER SYSTEM THAT TOOK OUR YOUTH AND SOLD IT BACK WITH INTEREST IF YOU'RE LIVING WITHOUT A LIST OF PEOPLE YOU WANT DEAD STOP WASTING AIR AND RUNNING SCARED LEARN TO TIE A KNOT OR LEARN TO TAKE A KNOT CAUSE EVERY DAY WE'RE RUNNING FROM GOD AND ALL THE BLOOD YOU'VE SHED IS JUST IN RETROSPECT FIND YOURSELF SOME HELP OR FIND YOURSELF SOME HEAD THIS IS ALL A SYMPTOM OF A HIGHER SYSTEM THAT TOOK OUR YOUTH AND SOLD IT BACK WITH INTEREST SO TELL ME WHERE'S YOUR SELF RESPECT?
