lyrics

Check yourself,
When you live in the sticks but you wanna be real sometimes,
Oh, you'll never get out,
No, You'll never escape.

And now, I can tell,
When you're being yourself,
Or when you're naughty and gone online.
(And you live and you breed and you die)

I twist my mind to think like you,
Adolescence without youth.
I twist my mind to think like you,
Somehow narrow yet obtuse.

If you think I,
Think that I think I'm better than you,
For getting out,
Of this town when I did,
Then you're goddamn right.

Bless yourself,
Now that nothing exists,
And your parents have paid the rent.
Your revolver has died,
And you never escaped.
Now, I can tell,
When you've gone off your meds,
Cause our daddy will start to bitch.
(And you live and you breed and you die)

I twist my mind to think like you,
Try not to think in absolutes.
(The heathens are breathing not leaving)
I twist my mind to think like you,
A perforated parachute.
(They're living we're watching they're dying)

If you think I,
Think that I think I'm better than you,
For getting out,
Of this town when I did,
Then you're goddamn right.

Tuning out in a cave,
White has faded to grey,
When it's so far away.
(Yeah, you're goddamn right)
Jackals stalk on the steppe,
Where there's nowhere to hide,
But, they're so far away,
If you think you are sane,
(Yeah, you're goddamn right)
In the din of their pain,
Then you're so far away,
(Yeah, you're goddamn right)
Get on outta of the way,
Of ones who just wouldn't stay.

They're living we're watching they're dying.
