Worn down to the ground,
Screws up, sits back down.
She puts a square peg in a round hole,
She's not an airhead she's an animal with a feral mind.
Blown right out,
No sign of land,
Blown right out,
Nowhere to be found.
Rubik's Cube; only grey to you,
Too see-through; a translucent you.
This is not my fault,
This is not my fault,
Kisses from a ghost,
Kisses from...
Everything was wrong, then it all clicked into place.
Everything was wrong, then it all clicked into place.
Everything was wrong, then it all clicked into place.
Everything was wrong, then it all clicked into place.

I will sing something of meaning
And you'll join in to feel something
Just to feel a thing, anything
How low and cold down there
There's a ring reserved for deserters and thieves
And I'll see you there
There was a time when the sand was stones and the trees, they were seeds... and you believe in yourself
What happened to that?
There's a ring reserved for deserters and thieves
And I'll see you there
And we'll be together in the end

Fold

Still stuck in white wool,
Make jokes to fool them all,
With heads full of false thoughts,
Make jokes then lose control,
And all I've shunned,
Is so I can cocoon.
And all I've done,
Is because I'm confused.
And I fold too soon.
I fold too soon.
Don't forget,
Autumn will come around.
And don't forget,
My nerves will let me down.
And I fold too soon.
The hand I hold will lose.
Don't forget that I will...
Don't forget....

You were old, but your mind was like a child's
Strong and full of youth, sharp and sub obtuse.
And you were the one that we all left behind,
And we all hope that you were the one who wouldn't mind.
We turned your back and sent you the wrong way,
You couldn't ask and didn't know to wait.
With wild ideas that wouldn't go away,
Forget those things and do not disobey me here.
Don't fall far behind too soon,
Brittle I don't mind,
Lead balloon.
Bad day, but just hold on and you know that soon you'll see,
Bad day, but it's only one of seven in the week,
Bad day, put your chin up and stop being so naive. [Don't leave.]
Don't fall far behind too soon,
Brittle I don't mind,
Lead balloon.
Don't fall far behind too soon [and it's too far gone, along]
Brittle I don't mind, [and it's too far gone, too long]
Lead balloon.

Too Hard

Too hard to confess it and too long to regret so you are gone,
Like a fog in the wind,
Too much to remember and too fucked to forget that you are wrong,
So you run far away from it all.
Everything is changing, so you can't keep up
It's too hard for you
Everything is changing, so you can't keep up
It's too hard for you
Blue-balled from rejection and in your head you still think you're the one who they all want to be,
You aint getting better man, you are getting worse,
You're in the way, so you should get away.
Everything is changing, so you can't keep up
It's too hard for you
Everything is changing, so you can't keep up
It's too hard for you
Everything is changing, so you can't keep up
It's too hard for you
Everything is changing, so you can't keep up
It's too hard for you

Apothecary come here,
I cannot carry these pedals on my back,
Can you put them on the track?
Could you help me with this?
Can you lighten the load?
'cause I'm finding it all just so
Hard to take your medicine,
The Vicadin, this Ventolin,
It makes me feel a little ill,
I don't want it, I want to quit.
Now wait 'til we stop before you get off the ride,
As the carriage'll sway from side to side.
Mind the gap as you step outside,
'cause the drop is a lot and you'll be surprised.
Break it all down from the inside,
Let the roof collapse and we'll all just die,
'cause we're feeling immune,
But we need a vaccine,
'cause we're getting sick of everything.
You want to do something for me?
Make me invisible,
A constant camouflage to fool the bad ones.
You want to do something for me?
Make me invisible,
A constant camouflage to fool the bad ones.
Before I continue I have to remind you,
That everything cannot be fixed with a virus,
Before I believe it I have to have seen it,
Because I know that you're doing it wrong.
Poison vials, chemicals, I cannot see the good in those,
Fix the problem if you can,
I'll put my trust in you again
You want to do something for me?
Make me invisible,
A constant camouflage to fool the bad ones.
You want to do something for me?
Make me invisible,
A constant camouflage to fool the bad ones.
