Maybe I've been down this road 
Maybe I've been chasing shadows
And I've taken on too much blame
We take apart things just to rebuild
Like making life, just to kill
And they're knocking down walls again
I won't be the one to clean up this mess when you're gone
And you can do whatever you want
Your entire life can be a con
If you just don't go anywhere
We can take safety in a number
And file it all away under summer
But how's it gonna feel when it tears?
I won't be the one to clean up this mess when you're gone
I'd rather be seasick 
Than stuck in this shit
There's no cure for idiocy
But all the nerve escapes
And I become mute
And realise the idiot is me
Well none of us are traitors till we are
And maybe all change can be on par
Only some of us come off like stars
I can take part in this tragedy
I don't think it's all you, it's mostly me
It's true we never knew each other
I won't be the one to clean up this mess when you're gone
I'd rather be seasick 
Than stuck in this shit
There's no cure for idiocy
But all the nerve escapes
And I become mute
And realise the idiot is me
I'd rather be seasick 
Than stuck in this shit
There's no cure for idiocy
But all the nerve escapes
And I become mute
And realise the idiot is me
I won't be the one to clean up this mess when you're gone
