saves the day

hello me 
are you in there? 
making sure you're not dead
smelled some rotting flesh


i heard you left him alone 
suns up with open roads 
get down 
freak out 
the time is right now 


drop your things 
and burn your clothes 
why we're here 
no one knows 
watch the bombs explode 


he sold you a dream 
and carved you up like meat 
lay down 
the law 
locked your heart behind bars 


while you were sleeping he would whisper in your ear 


the monkey will bite 
better eat your poultry 
till' there's no use 
don't try to 
ask a doctor 
what's going on inside your head 
just fall out and get in line 
like all good soldiers do 


you i woke to his games 
running circles in your brain 
can't believe your eyes 


what's up? what is down? 
he spun you around 
what's near? what is far? 
god knows what you are 
can you remember when 
this began? 


the monkey will bite 
better eat your poultry 
till there's no use 
don't try to 
ask a doctor 
what's going on inside your head 
it's pretend 
it's no meaning 
just stare at the ceiling and play dead for your whole life
