| This is for the lions living in the wiry broke down frames of my friends bodies. | |
| When the flood water comes, it ain't gonna be clear. It’s gonna look like mud. | |
| But I will help you swim. | |
| I will help you swim. | |
| I'm gonna help you swim. | |
| This is for the snakes and the people they bite; | |
| For the friends I’ve made; for the sleepless nights; | |
| For the warning signs I’ve completely ignored. | |
| There’s an amount to take, reasons to take more. | |
| It's no big surprise you turned out this way. | |
| When they close their eyes and prayed you would change | |
| And they cut your hair, and sent you away | |
| You stopped by my house the night you escaped | |
| With tears in my eyes, I begged you to stay | |
| You said, “Hey man, I love you but no fucking way” | |
| I’m sure that we could find something for you to do on stage. | |
| Maybe shake a tambourine or when I sing, you sing harmonies. | |
| This is for the lake that me and my friends swim in, naked and dumb on a drunken night | |
| And it should've felt good but I can hear the Jaws theme song on repeat in the back of my mind | |
| Make sure you kiss your knuckles before you punch me in the face | |
| There are lessons to be learned, consequences for all the stupid things I say | |
| And it is no big surprise you turned out this way. | |
| The spark in her eyes, The look on your face. | |
| I will not be late. | |
| I’m sure we could find something for you to do on stage. | |
| Maybe shake a tambourine or when I sing you sing harmonies. | |
| I wanna contribute to the chaos. | |
| I don’t wanna watch and then complain, | |
| 'Cause I am through finding blame | |
| That is the decision that I have made. | |
| She hopes I’m cursed forever to | |
| Sleep on a twin-sized mattress | |
| In somebody’s attic or basement my whole life, | |
| Never graduating up in size to add another | |
| And my nightmares will have nightmares every night | |
| Oh, every night. Every night. |
