lyrics

Maybe I'm too selfish to give a damn
Keep it in the cage I call my hands
I go to bed to escape it but I know it'll be there when I wake up
The bleeding stump where form cut function's head off

Was I born in the wrong town
Or maybe the wrong year?
Can you really call it an
Irrational fear?

I feel the pull but
It won't move me yet
But someday soon
I will conquer all the evils in my head

Maybe I don't mean all that I said
Describing what it's like to feel regret
And it's not quite what you meant to do but you
Let it slide cuz that works too
Cuz you are at the centre of my head

Was I born in the wrong town
Or maybe the wrong year?
Can you really call it an
Irrational fear?

I feel the flowers
In my chest unfurl
But someday soon
I will conquer all the evils in the world

(Break)

Was I born in the wrong town
Or maybe the wrong year?
Can you really call it an
Irrational fear?

I feel the urge to
Sleep under the sea
But someday soon
I will conquer all the evils you gave me
