This World
My best friend helped me bury our future in the backyard
We ran from cops like elephants on our first day of school
I saw a little girl reading, hiding from her father
Hiding poems in her bible; I saw this world is cruel
Strangle me with rosary
Your world is not built for me
When difference is obscenity
Your world is not built for me
Well, when I die, dress me up in all black
White roses with wet blood all over the back
As the Gold Finch chokes on lipstick-stained smoke
And a man with a silken noose slices his throat
Thoughts and feelings, end them please
This brain was not built for peace
Hide the razors, hide my teeth
This brain was not built for peace
Well, I am getting older, but still too young to forget
The track list at your funeral and everything they said
They said you'd go to hell, well, maybe that means
I'll see you once again, outside of those dreams
You were then, so I'm still loved
This world was not built for us
It's all, it's all, it's all too much
This world was not built for us
It's all, it's all, it's all too much
This world was not built for us
It's all, it's all, it's all too much
This world was not built for us
It's all, it's all, it's all too much
This world was not built for us
We ran from cops like elephants on our first day of school
I saw a little girl reading, hiding from her father
Hiding poems in her bible; I saw this world is cruel
Strangle me with rosary
Your world is not built for me
When difference is obscenity
Your world is not built for me
Well, when I die, dress me up in all black
White roses with wet blood all over the back
As the Gold Finch chokes on lipstick-stained smoke
And a man with a silken noose slices his throat
Thoughts and feelings, end them please
This brain was not built for peace
Hide the razors, hide my teeth
This brain was not built for peace
Well, I am getting older, but still too young to forget
The track list at your funeral and everything they said
They said you'd go to hell, well, maybe that means
I'll see you once again, outside of those dreams
You were then, so I'm still loved
This world was not built for us
It's all, it's all, it's all too much
This world was not built for us
It's all, it's all, it's all too much
This world was not built for us
It's all, it's all, it's all too much
This world was not built for us
It's all, it's all, it's all too much
This world was not built for us
