The World and Everyone in It
Get a grip on your self-involvement
Keep a hand on your heart and your eyes on the road
Can't you comprehend what you're doing to all of us?
While you're stacking wood for the funeral pyre
Strike the match
And my last words from the blaze:
"You'll get yours"
This isn't going to end well
But nothing ever does
It's got me thinking that
Oh, this too won't pass
When we throw ourselves away
In the state of our dismay
A downward spiral preened and perfect
The same old song; step and repeat
I'm not wearing my welcome out
But if the deja Vu's getting stronger now
Then I'll don my finest leather jacket and skip town
Stop me if you've heard this before
Send a postcard home from the big time
But don't expect us to say that we wish you were here
Do you think you're the only one who suffers?
It's no love lost when you ain't got a prayer
Because the depths that you drag me down to
Are where I can hunt you best
Can you smell the smoke?
Because I can't fucking breathe
Before you burn it down for nothing
When you step on the necks of your equals
I promise you'll get yours
You'll get yours
Keep a hand on your heart and your eyes on the road
Can't you comprehend what you're doing to all of us?
While you're stacking wood for the funeral pyre
Strike the match
And my last words from the blaze:
"You'll get yours"
This isn't going to end well
But nothing ever does
It's got me thinking that
Oh, this too won't pass
When we throw ourselves away
In the state of our dismay
A downward spiral preened and perfect
The same old song; step and repeat
I'm not wearing my welcome out
But if the deja Vu's getting stronger now
Then I'll don my finest leather jacket and skip town
Stop me if you've heard this before
Send a postcard home from the big time
But don't expect us to say that we wish you were here
Do you think you're the only one who suffers?
It's no love lost when you ain't got a prayer
Because the depths that you drag me down to
Are where I can hunt you best
Can you smell the smoke?
Because I can't fucking breathe
Before you burn it down for nothing
When you step on the necks of your equals
I promise you'll get yours
You'll get yours
