Stapled shut, inside an outside world and I’m
Sealed in tight, bizarre but right at home
Claustrophobic, closing in and I’m
Catastrophic, not again

I’m smeared across the page, and doused in gasoline
I wear you like a stain, yet I’m the one who’s obscene
Catch me upon all your sordid little insurrections
I’ve got no time to lose, and I’m just caught up in all the cattle

I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget that

I’m ripped across the ditch, and settled in the dirt and I’m
I wear you like a stitch, yet I’m the one who’s hurt
Pay attention to your twisted little indiscretions
I’ve got no right to win, I’m just caught up all the battles

I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
Before I forget that

My end
It justifies my means
All I have to do is delay
I’m given time to evade
The end of the road is my end
It justifies my means
All I have to do is delay
I haven’t time to evade
The end of the road!
