lyrics

Here’s what happens when they put you under the lamp:
I don’t believe in anybody since I heard the sound
Everything rings, everything moves the way it should
I don’t understand the things that I’m supposed to do
The postings on the page seem meaningless
"Feed your neck to a bear if you don’t need your head!”
Patty told Hatty every thing to do
“Find yourself a secret, something's wrong with you”
Then you’re covered in light.
“No good, born to lose”, that’s what they said
“Reach out close your eyes open your hand
Take a ticket, stick a cricket into your head
Better you, take two, do it again
You’re quickly getting sicker but we know what to do:
tell you little lies and you tell us their true
Keep the treatment secret because they won’t understand
Better you, take two, do it again”
Then you don’t know what to believe in, baby
But there’s nothing in your way when you become the sound
There’s nothing left to say
And you don’t know what you believe in
You know you’re covered in light
