Meditation: Emergency


The only other place I can never return to hide to Is in your arms, So long I’m, I’m going away to... Meet me anywhere else, don’t cry Gone, left forgotten Is this what you wanted Turn around, look back You got style kid But you ain’t hip, Yet So long now, where are you going I don’t know, Where are you trying to stay cool kid Feels that we’ve been gone long when you’re in your own head Tell the kids to go to hell Learn to be happy The only thing left to see The one, a forgotten army Behind you door is a tree A truth it awaits your eyes Patiently telling lies The patients in your bed The sickness is in your head I’m going to school now dead So, you think you got style kid I think I ill let you know I think ill let you go I think I’m getting fired Theres something turning over in your brain today But you’re not to sure who you are anyway Your head is gone The day is gone Your lady’s gone Your heads gone Everything in your mind never lasted through the decades of time You’re still seventeen Grow up kid theres nothing you could do I don’t know you anyway Be happy look around Nothing left to bounce kid Turn and run You’re only getting younger by the day Turn your sickness away Turn your smile upside down Turn your smiles inside out Your flipping their faces now No one replaces you Without getting a fist in the face So what you've become a little bit of a bully Weren’t you bullied to once kid Listen and wait the only voice in your head is telling you to go away None of your friends ever stayed None of your friends ever stayed
