To get by You lie to the doctors again I'm alright Just need another month on the 10s Stay polite So no one takes away Your belts and your pens Red eyes Skyscraping with the birds Flying by your head You're on fire And you don't know Don't know where you go You're on fire You can't let it show Don't know where you go You're on fire And you don't know Don't know where you go You can't let it go You wanted perforated walls Like all the prodigal kids Repeat serenity verbatim Ineffectively hid To imitate what they contain Was there a promise within? Banished children of Eve Found their way back in And the television taught you How to figure it out You can rearrange the words Tell everyone about how You pulled the thorns out of your side And shaped them into a crown And spent the rest of your life living it down You're on fire And you don't know Don't know where you go You're on fire You won't let it show Don't know where you go You're on fire And you don't know Don't know where you go You can't let it go
