Ratchet

Got me in a vise no no won't let me go
Turnin' all the screws yeah turnin' 'em slow
Lock nuts crankin' all my little threads
Ratchet any harder soon we'll all be dead

Jackhammer pounding up inside my head
Staccato rhythm got me hangin' by a thread
Drill press screamin' oh please just make it stop
Life is spinning like a turboprop

Livin' in this pressure cooker we call Earth
Just a big machine shop and we're all cursed
Everything is upside down makin' us insane
I don't know where it's gonna stop it's tearin' up my brain

Everything is spinning fast
Now I got the bends
Can't see where it started
Don't know where it ends
I don't really think
Life's supposed to be this hard
Brought it all upon ourselves
And now we've got the scars yeah

Ratchet up ratchet up tighten everything
Just like on a scaffold the hangman's gonna swing
We're gonna tear ourselves apart and ruin everything
We're fucking everything we touch
And that means everything

Pissin' in the wind yeah screwing up the earth
Our legacy a ruined planet won't be no rebirth
Pull our heads from out our asses just like afterbirth
Let's fix it now and shove it in reverse

Ratchet up ratchet up tighten everything
Just like on a scaffold the hangman's gonna swing
We're gonna tear ourselves apart and ruin everything
'Cause we're fucking everything we touch
And that means everything - oh
