lyrics

VERSE 1
2:35 as we walked in the door,
Wearing devilish grins so consistent to form,
Explosions you have scares the doctors away,
But your psychopathic tendencies make me delay,
Cos it sticks in my brain like an old mother goose,
Transposed down three steps to avoid life’s cruel noose,
I look away, I’m safe but I look away,
These opportunities of recklessness, I can’t pass away,

VERSE 2
These acts of violence could always make us make a perfect day,
But stare too close to sun your eyes will burn up in a violet ray,
I want to find the reason why your head it works in opposites,
But only cos I’m jealous of your cerebellum’s working ways,
I can’t stand, no I want to go home,
Where the rats scurry past scratches leaving me whole,
They say you can’t burn out if you were never on fire,
And you live that way religiously hand to the heart.
