★ Pre-Chorus ★ Why did you bring me here? And if I'm really home, then why Why does it feel so strange? I'm gonna burn it down Sweep the ashes off of what remains
★ Chorus ★ Operate like this is all a nightmare I'm not supposed to be here The steady pace, the bitter taste And cold tears I don't wipe away any more I wish I was only depressed I'm starved of all things but your stress I get three square a day, and the excess I pray Make it stop, what for? I'll meet you at sickness, I'm sure

This one looks at me like a TV But why don't they hear me scream? As I hop aboard this burning wreck and head right for the sun I'm done
★ Chorus ★ 'Cause that's the way I'm gonna end this nightmare I'm not supposed to be here The steady pace, the bitter taste And cold tears I don't wipe away any more I wish I was only depressed I'm starved of all things but your stress I get three square a day, and the excess I pray Make it stop, what for? I'll meet you at sickness, I'm sure
★ Bridge ★ A stolen glance at your diary I couldn't keep it shut I advanced, you'd failed to keep it locked Forever lost Face down, wide awake Sound dies, meanings change Mind breaks, tongue turns Words that follow have no place They have no place, but cannot wait They cannot wait once they start You're just so good at breaking my heart ★ Chorus ★ I'm gonna end this nightmare I'm not supposed to be here The steady pace, the bitter taste And cold tears I don't wipe away any more I wish I was only depressed I'm starved of all things but your stress I get three square a day, and the excess I pray Make it stop, what for? I'll meet you at sickness, I'm sure
