The kid next door is defective, the trees are rotting and bending to the ground Watch the un-tainted innocence, collapse into lewd misfortunes And I swear but the truth feels so empty And I run but there's darkness everywhere Paralyzed you can't see Paranoid you can't sleep Through the lies that surround you Paralyzed you can't breath Paranoid you can't sleep Through the lies that surround you I'm at least half a mile away, but much further than I thought I would be To finding my way out of myself, so relax I'll be back on Thursday And I swear but the truth gets me nowhere And I run but there's darkness everywhere Paranoid you can't sleep Paralyzed you can't see Through the lies that surround you Paranoid you can't sleep Paralyzed you can't see Through the lies that surround you Substance seals leaks in you damaged ship so we sink right Right before my eyes but it's putting out the fire well Carnage lights up the sky but it's just as well No one's fine sinking into the darkness it's no surprise You can't save it though you wanted to You can taste it in the drowning dew Someone laced it with a poison fruit So lets die like heroes With useless feats, it's bitter sweet its all around you The guiding star has forced us farther from ourselves You can taste it But you can't save it
