You need to listen to us right now
'Cause some whack shit is going down
The bullshit keeps churning out
If you don't say a word to her then I will
Such a shame that you haven't got the guts to spill
Tell me, where do I go?
I wish that I didn't know
A slave to the wages of sin
Where do I begin?
Sort it out, you got your fuckin' head screwed on wrong mate
You need to listen to us
You always felt you had a point to prove
But the truth is that you got nothing that you need to prove to us
You need to straighten out, buckle up, fly right
It's just a matter of trust
You always said that you felt so sure
But you just crashed the proverbial bus
You need to think about what you need
'Cause if we can't get the stone to bleed
At least we can plant the seed
You need some time alone to get your mind right
It'll all make sense to you in hindsight
'Cause you know when you've had enough
You know when you've got it rough
Yeah, you know when you've had enough
At least you know
When it's time to cut the cord
At least
You know when you're getting bored
Tell me, where do I go?
I wish that I didn't know
A slave to the wages of sin
Where do I begin?

Show me what you're thinking
When you see me from the outside in
I'll just soldier up
Let me save you from that mess you're in
Yeah, oh pretty baby wears that skin so well
Yeah, already know you'll make my life a living hell
Euthanize the human race
Pray that God illuminates
All your precious doubts and fears
I hope you fear me now
Yeah, you're in the back of my mind
Yeah, had to make you, had to make you mine all mine
The worst part of all of it
Is that she won't feel a thing
Until I remove the sting
Yeah, oh pretty baby wears that skin so well
Yeah, already know you'll make my life a living hell.

Yeah, been throwing pennies down a wishing well
"Oh, what the hell?" I thought
I always knew that I would wish you well
You never wanted an argument, well now you've got it
And that's why they call me the cynicist
Yeah, it's so quiet
When you go to sleep
But we retire
We get busy, getting busier
Were not leaving, didn't expect you would show
(Sore eyes, dead brain)
I've been reading, I think I'm losing control
(Sore eyes, dead brain)
You know I'd appreciate
Being kept in the loop
Yeah, you know I'd appreciate if somebody could tell me
Why what I did was so wrong
Don't try to ghost me
'Cause you don't see through me
It's beautiful
It ends too soon

This is absolution personified
This is misdirection identified
I'm still living in this hexless ghost house
Lexus toad spouse, soon to be code mouse
Somewhere between that first coffee and cigarette
I lost the bet, but I'm not giving up yet
Destined to be the richest man in the graveyard
Ingesting the bullshit, I pull the "Get my Way" card
Split the wood
Break the mold
Let it dissipate into the cold
This is getting by, just fine
I'm paralyzed by your eyes, yeah
When you crawl to me
When you crawl to me, yeah
Yeah
This is absolution personified
This is misdirection identified
You've been running circles around my head
You pretty little thing
Come and take a ride on the edge of my bed
You pretty little thing
Captured your eye
Fell from the sky
Last of the light
Save yourself
