Another effortless
80-minute cut
Another bad, bad burning
Down in my gut
Big men in hoods and coats with scissors
Darkness underneath, light shining through their eyeholes
Rotted yellow teeth
They've come for its soul
And roll
The next reel
Don't let anybody tell you how to feel
Stories in my head
Blur out in fractured pieces
Light pink envelopes
With very subtle creases
When I close my eyes, it all fades into focus
Thank god that you don't know
The pain that comes with clarity
Unimaginable, the haunted frames appear to me
And see my
Last reel
Don't let anybody tell me (you) how to feel

The angles tell us how to feel
My blood runs hot for that last reveal
Make me hurt, make me scared
Make me wish I'd never seen this place
Make me wish I'd never dared
Take every left turn
Make every mistake
Some people can't learn
Some rocks just sink in the lake
And I can't hear you over the sound
Of the demons telling me just what I'm good for
I will not bend and I will not break
I am an unrelenting force
The angles keep you far away
The doors all lock and I can't be afraid
Let me squint, let me take aim
Let me grab the knife from off the shelf
Let it poke into your brain
Bet on the loser
Let the sun rise
Someone could bruise her
Someone is asking to die
And I can't hear you over the sound
Of the demons telling me just what I'm good for
I will not bend and I will not break
I am an unrelenting force

The sun always rises in the south
And it sets there too
So it never shines on you
Turn on the faucet, and let it run
God help us escape here
But 'til then let's have some fun
Mansions built too
Big to fail
The bleeding edge of comfort
In this perfect public jail
My lenses are all built to last
And if one of them cracks
We'll get a new one fast
You are the star shining in the dark
Don't look me in the eye
Don't think and don't try
Don't make me tell you lies
Don't let me hear you sigh
Don't ever lose your spark
Who needs an audience
When you've got a stage
And why look for the key
When it's so nice in the cage

Matches in a maze
Your sideways glance silencing the haze
And the red, or however the red looks in greyscale
Your face is so pale
Don't tell me what I don't remember
I was in Munich last December
And you were under
Where the shadows went
Rows upon rows of those
Things that move only when my eyes close
And the statues, or whatever you call the ones with masks
I shouldn't ask
Don't tell me what I don't remember
I was in Munich last December
And you were under
Where the shadows went
I will leave this place and head for the sea
I will make it through last year
If it kills me
Blink your eyes if you think I'm fine
Do it twice if you realize I can't blink mine
And the reason I'm leaving here with you
Is that I'm scared, and I'm all out of flares
Don't tell me what I don't remember
I was in Munich last December
And you were under
Where the shadows went
But now you're up here
And now I'm shaking
And now you're staring
And now I'm breaking
Any place but here
Any time but last year

Lob some spit at the window
Watch it drip down the pane
It's only the guilty who concern themselves
With clearing their names
You bring tidings of hope, false tidings
When you come here
There's two friends who did me wrong that you're protecting
It's so clear
That when you speak it's those two
Who speak through you
Who'll speak for me?
The burning and the electricity
Sun goes down San Francisco
Friends are hard to find
Chew them up just as quick as I can catch them
Try to clear my mind
Remember hours at the table
Gauze white light easing through
If there's one thing I'm not gonna do tonight
It's die for you
And when you speak it's those two
Who speak through you
Who'll speak for me?
The burning and the electricity
