lyrics

Im alive shudder and split my lazy eyes for the first time
Wondering why I always felt like an alien in disguise
Introverted was the verdict and the cause of my remise
I'll be damned, but I understand that this caged bird needs to fly

I hate this place
It feels so fake

So take your pictures they last longer
sometimes I feel just like my father
I wanna run away from everything
I think I've had all I can manage
I'm calling quits cause I can't stand it
Gonna' seal my fate and see what it brings

Inside every broken home
There lies a cockaroach
bent on making it out, from the depths of the wet basement under the house
As it climbs on the wires in the walls
Done with it all
From the striving to survive, to the dirt kick in his eyes when he crawls
But if there's a light at the end of the road you know I'll be gone

So take your pictures...

I've felt this way before
I feel I'm breaking down
I'm begging at my feet,
don't fail me now
I've seen this place before
At least a thousand times
I'm beggin at my head don't lose my mind.

This is the taste of self-liberation
emancipate myself through this song
I'm unchained...

Look at your pictures now
I hope you wrote this down
Cause I'm foreal when I say,
I'm getting out.
