I’m wasted, losing time
I’m a foolish, fragile spine
I want all that is not mine
I want him but we’re not right

In the darkness I will meet my creators
And they will all agree, that I’m a suffocator

I should go now quietly
For my bones have found a place
to lie down and sleep
Where all my layers can become reeds
All my limbs can become trees
All my children can become me
What at mess I leave
To follow [x4]

In the darkness I will meet my creators
They will all agree, I’m a suffocator

Suffocator [x2]
Oh no
I’m sorry if I smothered you [x2]
I sometimes wish I’d stayed inside
My mother
Never to come out

Drifting apart like two sheets of ice, my love
Frozen hearts growing colder with time
There's no heat from our mouths
Please take me back to my rich youth

And we were in flames, I needed I needed you
To run through my veins, like disease
And now we are strange, strangers

It's different now
Gray faced
Eyes burnt out
Flames are gone
Gloves are on
I have a feeling
Love's gone back
Went to the cinema, losing our minds
With comic fever, shutting confined spaces
Lost in the dark, my heart taken
Resting on your heart

And we were in flames, I needed I needed you
To run through my veins, like disease
And now we are strange, strangers

Wait for
me to
degrade before
You go
Caring
Pray for
Waste of
Daylight
Speaks when
Sun burns keeping
Undeveloped
Out of revenge
And degrading
My youth and stained on our sheets
It's on a piece of me
It's on a piece of me

Winter comes
Winter crush all
I've heard things that
I once had

Is the world strange, or am I strange
Is the world strange, or am I?
Is the world mean, or am I mean?
Guess I won't know till I die

Everyone I know, I don't wanna see you anymore
I don't even know, what I know you for
All I know is that you made me feel abnormal
And mostly always, all day, as kids when we played
I still felt like I had to try to be okay with you
And truly, I wanted you to like me

Not spite me without explanation unrightly
But even as a kid my heart's what I hid
Coz something about it and this planet don't fit
I could never build relationships the way you did
So you were only friends with what I pretended
Every day, every minute, and now I'm stuck so far in it
This game will mean death for me if I don't win it
I'm a coward, a deserter
An anonymous flirter

I had me a woman but my bullshit just hurt her
Very much the same, when I was at school
Felt like I was from a gene pool
Created to be confused, should never have to choose
Between what I am, and what the world understands
But if I never did I'd be more isolated
But sure I'd be hated, so it's way better if I fake it

Fake me, fake these words
I'm sick of polishing this turf
For this proud little planet, that can't understand it
But really, it's clearly my fucked mind that's had it
I tried, don't know why, but myself was no help
People saw shit inside me
It's clear that they felt it wasn't their job to comprehend

So I began learning them, to spare them the expense
I began my decent to the future
Time here's not like when you're eight
It's real, like mistakes I just realized I made
Like thinking people are worth having to suffer
Painting over yourself in their favourite colour
Or maybe I'm just a clock with no real face
Who tried to tick tock but could not find a pace

Is the world strange, or am I strange?
Is the world strange or am I?
Is the world mean, or am I mean?
Guess I won't know till I die
Is the world dead, or am I dead?
Is the world dead, or am I?
Is the world fucked, or am I fucked?
Guess I won't know, till I die

[And I wished you would be harsh to me
And explain to my face every fault you could see
Instead you were silent yes you let me be
To continue to search for what mask you could treat
Like a motherfucking normal human being
Other kids in your club didn't have masks to bring
They didn't act different, and that was sufficient

For them to receive all your trust that I didn't
That's why I can't care now about you lot
Coz from the beginning you never said get lost
You never said fuck off, Cos take that brave mask off
We as a world have decided you're just not what we're looking for

In a long time acquaintance, we don't like hearing
Your emotionless statements
And your 'I can't play ball with the world' conversations
Kill yourself now so in the future we're free
From your songs about fucked up personality
I always prayed that you would punch me in the face
And shout you are a waste of space get out my family say you can't come round
Wanted everyone more than they ever wanted me
I worked for them, worked for their company
Coz it wasn't really me they befriended, extended friendly courtesy
It was whatever mask, that I wore
That applied to their sort
That applied to them so much they'd answer the door
When I knocked after school with my trusty skateboard
And I'm paying for it now
I'm a rain filled cloud that can't drop the huge storm it allowed

To build up inside it, no not a single drip
I can never get rid of what makes me a dick
I'd say sorry, but it's not my fault I exist
So just kiss my ass people
I'm glad you won't miss me when I'm gone
I don't want to be in your history
It's best to forget me
Even if you liked me you still never met me

Is the world strange, or am I strange?
Is the world strange, or am I?
Is the world mean, or am I mean?
Guess I won't know, till I die
Is the world dead, or am I dead?
Is the world dead or am I?
Is the world fucked, or am I fucked?
Guess I won't know till I die
Is the world strange, or am I strange?
Is the world strange, or am I?
Is the world mean, or am I mean?
Guess I won't know till I die
Is the world dead, or am I dead?
Is the world dead, or am I?
Is the world fucked, or am I fucked?
Guess I won't know till I die

If I should see you in the sky
I will look up, I will look up with some delight
I'll probably ask you shit you heard a million times
How many parts of things I do would you consider crimes

I'll ask you which way I should go
Even if you answer I won't trust you in my soul
I'm only human I watch stories on TV
They give me an ending when an ending's all I need

You don't know how much I love thisx2

So many lines I've had to cross
Don't wanna belong to a club with such a lenient boss
Get your ass down here reprimand me for my sins
How can I know reason if no reason's why I've been

How come every man ain't good?
If it happened over night would you retire if you could?
If I believe in heaven I deny myself a death
Dying keeps me conscious of the way I waste my breath

You don't know how much I love thisx4

So you'll tell me how it is
But what if how it is does not agree with how I live
Should I admit the path I'm on is not the best
Should I join your super highway cause you say that it's correct

Just want an answer I can trust
Things I should be doing ain't the same as things I must
Tony Soprano is a teacher I respect
He's always been there when I take a nasty step

You don't know how much I love thisx4

So I don't think we should confer
Let's just grab a cup of coffee get fair trade if you'd prefer
You'll look at me ways that I've never looked at you
And I'll step back still wondering what you're thinking I should do

You don't know how much I love this x4

I'm getting too old for this young man's game
as soon as I settle people change.

Sort yourself out, please! x2

So you come home and look around your room,
at your Superman comic collection.
"Why can't I fly", you say, and you
think about where all of this is going,
why couldn't you be a hero.
Well, bein' a hero is easy, in a way.

And you're angry that you only got two words
that you ever type into google.
"Free porn", and that's it, nothing else.

And you're so sick of pathetically quitting smoking,
(cause you're scared it'll deaden your lifespan
quits and thats what smoking is) nicht sicher
But you can't help yourself.

And you're broke, too, cause you always waste your money,
like on that stupid mandoline, still sitting in the corner opposite me

So you lay down on your bed and try to sleep
but you can't even do that, cause you've got some obsessive compulsive thing where you pray for your family.

And you're running out of friends to lose,
there's something wrong with you boy,
you make them leave, you're harsh.

So give up and give in to bein' human,
like you gave in to smoking,
how you love that rolli in your mouth at last.

Sort yourself out, please! x4

And you sit there with cups of piss in your bedroom,
'cause you figure you'll be gone soon,
so you don't use the toilet anymore.
And your mother she's having a nervous breakdown
and the fault is all just yours
you call her names until she sleeps
good night mom you're a whore and you're
dreaming of marrying Jessica whatsherface
Well maybe you will, or maybe you won't
but you gotta deal with it now, right now.

And your brother, yeah I can tell he hates you,
'cause even on his birthday, you somehow managed to cause a row.
And you treat the people that you meet
just like you treat guitars, you use them be nice to em
then forget them like (arienough??!!! ich hab keine ahnung).
And you're mad then when you leave the door,
you turn into this other guy, but without him you're useless as can be

Sort yourself out, please!
