| [00:15.27] |
My alter-ego, he's an escape artist, |
| [00:19.10] |
He's only truly happy when he's under arrest |
| [00:23.04] |
Oh how he handsome, scheduled to hang to death |
| [00:26.95] |
He's only truly happy at the precipice |
| [00:30.72] |
He's like a mirror, he sticks into our ears |
| [00:34.70] |
A stethoscope to the chest of the vacant years |
| [00:38.53] |
I can't escape the chair, I'm etherized with fear |
| [00:42.57] |
That my only talent is in hanging here. |
| [00:46.26] |
But then it's |
| [00:47.32] |
Hey boy, I've got your man he's right here |
| [00:52.87] |
Putty in my hands |
| [00:55.03] |
Ice cream and sweets, |
| [00:56.59] |
Coming in the sheets |
| [00:58.47] |
He got no excuse to leave. |
| [01:02.11] |
But in the real world, an intertidal cave, |
| [01:06.14] |
I ride a desk chair waiting for a tidal wave |
| [01:10.13] |
I feel like dancing, but that is miles away |
| [01:13.97] |
I'm feeling hard and hollow like paper mache. |
| [01:17.86] |
My alter ego. he's in a jailer's cage |
| [01:21.76] |
He sits and waits for the devil to abet his escape. |
| [01:25.65] |
I'm sorry pastor, I can't be pasteurized. |
| [01:29.64] |
All of the bibles in the world for a metal file. |
| [01:33.47] |
At every clock strike, he hears the jailer's keys |
| [01:37.37] |
And the doubt starts to sprout til he’s on his knees. |
| [01:41.36] |
And he remembers like it's his mother’s call |
| [01:45.14] |
To feel his hand find a grip at the top of the wall. |
| [01:50.54] |
I want to feel it, I want to feel the fire |
| [01:53.07] |
Of the leftover sun on the roofing tiles. |
| [01:57.46] |
I want to feel it, I want to feel the fire |
| [02:00.86] |
Of the leftover sun on the roofing tiles. |
| [02:06.71] |
Hey boy, I've got your man he's right here |
| [02:11.16] |
Putty in my hands |
| [02:13.33] |
Ice cream and sweets, |
| [02:15.09] |
Coming in the sheets |
| [02:16.95] |
He got no excuse to leave |
| [02:21.85] |
Hey boy, I’ve got your man he’s right here |
| [02:27.52] |
Putty in my hands |
| [02:29.54] |
Ice cream and sweets, |
| [02:31.41] |
Coming in the sheets |
| [02:33.28] |
He got no excuse to leave |
