lyrics

I don't go out. Davey, what's the time?
Come in quickly. There's a war outside.
Right over my head. Right in front of my eyes.
Would a picture be enough this time?

I'm getting closer. They don't seem to mind.
I'm getting faster. Come in. Stay a while.

What a statement. What a thing to say.
'It's just a drag race' and we're dragging all the weight.
No I'm not trying to offend or complain.
No I'm not trying to regulate.

It's getting harder to account for the self's
Unusual way of living off it's health.

The breaks have failed.
Now we're going downhill.
There's nothing wrong, officer. Nothing wrong with him.

So let's call it a last resort, and save all of the retrospect you've earned.
You can pack up your backpack and go home.

But me, I'll copay forever
So I see the stars at night all the better,
But they've all gone now, and the sun's come out
To awaken all the fools, all the children, and their schools.
They're breaking all those rules.
