lyrics

I’m not as loyal as you think
Coming to that point but already past the brink
My excitement’s an overbear
It’s like I’m drastically electric, such I’m sentenced to the chair

There’s the chat and the giggles
The voice in my head sends my limbs signals
Symbolic yes it seems
Gleaming I’m a beacon and I’m beckoning those fiends

So fend for yourself
I left my friendship on the shelf back home
I lost my dignity tonight
I think it’s a shame that I will return alone

Now I’m back to native
Relatively calm, but my fingers investigative
Think it’s that 4 am glaze
Made it to the morning but still waiting for the day

Still I’ve grown bored with this sanity
I might breach, or go for a total destructive plan
You think it’s fun
Because you learn who will grasp your hands and your mind will run

I might smash, bash, or perish
I doubt in the end I will finish in good fair it’s
So very unlikely
Based on how I saw you did
You’re a smidge not like me

We read until we lost the page
Made it to the epilogue
But where was yesterday
I feel so shot
I think it’s best we all sit down
But for now I will not
