I dropped myself down upon my knees I hate myself when I act the freak I snarl, I beg, I scream CHORUS: To do is the doing and being is bait/to not want in confusion/ I feel far from confusion and feeding off simple twists of fate I'm riding the monkey again I'm feeding him fun, I'm feeding again Here I go, here I go again CHORUS I know I'm a bloated rose Can't see as far as my nose goes, I know I know I'm a bloated rose I'm plucked I'm thorned CHORUS
2.
I had a very bad year A little strain on my family tree Just a bad year I felt the weight of the first born blood on my shoulder I was born I am blessed I’m also just an animal mess It was an awful year too much blood too much fear Just a sad year I put the weight of too much love on my shoulders I pray to god, I repent I know that my time here is just leant, is leant We’re pennies in time A little glitch on the timeline Pennies in time A little glitch on the timeline REPEAT It was an awful year A lot of loss drunken tears Just a wasted year I feel the weight of too much love on my shoulders We are born, we are blessed But know this your body is leant, is leant Chorus Bridge: Go ahead pray to god repent Embrace your animal mess You were born you lucky guest Know this your time here is leant, leant, leant, is leant

Leverage 02:14
Talk to me Am I so scary to you, I wanna wish on my wishing well and make the scars all disappear all these fights through all the years I carry the line all the time tow the line all the time Don't want to tow the line, tow the line Carrying the line all the time I'm tired It's all about leverage and fighting for our egos I guess I gotta get use to it Why do I feel everything is all my fault I'm gasoline Carrying the line, tow the line, carrying the line all the time Don't want to tow the line Carry the line I'm tired It's heavy I want leverage
4.
I got my red dress on Felt pretty on the outside today Then my phone rang and I picked up Must of picked up at the wrong time CHORUS: I hit the dead end running I climb and endless wall All I do is mourn it I mourn my empty house This is an empty house I swim oceans unending I'm flying through a black hole now I'm on a mission but I'm blinded by disappointment somehow CHORUS I'm screaming when you speak, screaming when you speak Cause all I get is your worn out answers Don't list demands I say, don't list demands I say CHORUS
5.
Am I to entertain you? I never saw this that way I can’t ransom up my soul Or be a puppet untold I’ll choose my own damn therapy If you don’t like it don’t come see me I’d rather scrap myself off the floor Than be a liar, someone’s whore CHORUS: I’m terrified of silence I crucify my own bliss I covet noise and trouble If I resist then I’m The suffering bitch Resist then I”m the suffering bitch Everybody’s hero but mine I”m a mama not mine This is asylum for This is where I get to be CHORUS Sound like a gun Tastes like salt I sound like a gun I taste like salt I’ll choose my own damn therapy If you don’t like it don’t come see me I’d rather scrap myself off the floor Then be a liar a whore I can’t be a puppet untold I am not a puppet untold CHORUS I sound like a gun Taste me I am salt
6.
Don’t promise me christmas then take it away Don’t tell me you love me We have other things to say CHORUS: I know where promises go I know where they go I know where promises go Where they go It’s like this CD player he bought me the week he died Now i can’t play my records, my records make me cry CHORUS Just be my Indiana Angel and kiss me when I wake With your blue, I mean green eyes smiling I love your smell you’re my clean slate
7.
I sleep through winter, spring and fallen dreams Sleep has finally taken over me and when I dream I dream alone Love felt like the enemy It was not what it use to be when I was young Now I dream in an avalanche of scenery Time and space a place I call my own I place that I belong Love is not the enemy It’s just not what it use to be when I was young You’re mine baby Looking down your back You are eye candy You are mine baby Love is what you are Love is not the enemy It’s just not what it use to be when I was young
8.
Beautiful boy where are your toys has GI Joe turned into The cruel tools of manhood Needles and pins cars that go too fast a little Alcohol is always good to see you through CHORUS: I guess you didn’t see that time was gonna come for you And the consequence of your high took the rest of your days Didn’t you know that it's ok to be not the things we thought we’d be When we were young and full of plans Hold on to your dreams cause they are the thing That life’s going to take from you when you’re not holding On strong enough CHORUS It’s a beautiful day, there’s a little rain on my window I can see Brooklyn now through the eyes of a woman You have shown me that times also going to come for me And the consequence of a high isn’t worth the escape You have shown that time is also going to come for me the consequence of getting high isn’t worth the escape
