[00:53.89]So here is just the way it is:
[00:55.99]I’m not clever enough to fix it
[00:57.20]So I try my best to twist it
[00:58.49]List the reasons to go
[00:59.74]And reasons to stay
[01:01.03]Keep it in my chest pocket
[01:02.32]Keep it close to me—not near my mother
[01:04.03]No, she’s always following like a hunter
[01:05.88]Creeping through the shadows
[01:07.09]‘Cause she dwells in every corner
[01:08.31]An assimilated fixture that be’ stalking like a porter
[01:10.78]She likes to dress me up
[01:11.91]I swear she treats me like a daughter
[01:13.58]But she don’t remember me
[01:15.72]That picture on her dresser—she pretends that’s me
[01:17.89]You know, it’s like an endless seam
[01:20.47]That’s running down the leg of this relentless empress
[01:24.27]I have heard it
[01:29.23]The voice that talks right by my window
[01:33.03]'Is there anybody home inside?
[01:35.88]Is there anybody home inside your head?'
[01:39.12]You tell me…
[01:42.16]You tell me…
[01:55.90]I’ve lost track of the times I’ve hurt myself
[01:58.06]Life’s simple wonders
[01:59.74]Yo, this authority speaks with a voice that’s so loud
[02:03.26]It makes me tuck my tail and hop home
[02:06.50]Protect me from myself
[02:08.11]How about protect me from myself?
[02:10.68]You are a saint ‘cause you protect me from my-****ing-self
[02:16.13]I have heard it
[02:21.17]The voice that talks right by my window
[02:25.21]'Is there anybody home inside?
[02:27.79]Is there anybody home inside your head?'
[02:31.85]You tell me…
[02:34.18]You tell me…
[02:42.75] (scattering)
[02:52.78]Whatever
[02:55.27]I’d say today’s the day to turn away
[03:00.19]Can’t **** this up
[03:26.63]Are you petrified?
[03:28.94]Call mother!
[03:30.58]Say I’m not okay
[03:33.08]All I feel inside’s coming onto to the carpet floor
[03:39.21]Are you petrified?
[03:41.72]Call mother!
[03:43.42]I am not okay
[03:45.61]All I feel inside’s coming onto to the carpet floor
