Lyrics:

Broken down little flakes
In my tongue
Come from larger pieces
Grown on my fingers
Gnawed at constantly
For the purpose I don't know
But I've got a couple guesses, I
Would like to share
It's fear, it's guilt, it's envy
It's my self-destruct
When I feel like I'm stuck
And when the light shines in my eyes
You know I'm thinking all the time
But something happens when it gets too bright
And I lose my mind
And all these open lines
And this distraction gets me feeling bad
In my head I'm slow

I don't have fun
I just become what I've done
I live in aware holding on to what I sell
I am so angry, I'm just mad
Cause people are not born with a fair chance
I stay here all day
Picking flowers for your grave
Asking all the time
Who's in charge and who's getting paid
It should seem obvious
But I'm not sure how to play the game
I throw away my receipts and don't do my taxes for the first of May
It stays in the family
Keeping me happy
And I will always be assured
I'll never be lonely
And it won't matter if I don't ever have the nerve
To tell it like it is
Lost in my own personal narrative
Oh, tell me it's easy
Tell me you believe me
A sense of resounding joy
No time to assess my
Whole life is a mess, I
Terror fills my every move
I can't move very far
Locked in the chains I bound and tied myself
Bound and tied myself

And when the light shines in my eyes
You know I'm thinking all the time
And if it has to end
Then darling, let's just play pretend
We'll put a mortgage down and settle in
Making babies, drinking gin
I don't like moving
I push around the block a couple more
It's in your interest
To let me go away if I am bored
But I'll be right back, babe
So don't forget my love
I put it on the shelf
I'm still so weary
From all those other times
That I hid myself from view
And now it starts to come unglued
And I'm not sure how to conclude
All this mess I put you through
Lesson learned
