The Ballad Of Bodmin Pill |
| Smash glass against the wall |
| Curse the music on the radio that the neighbours play |
| Door slams, she turns her head |
| Watches through the window as he pulls away |
| Funny how your racing brain drives you so mad |
| When all the while you feel so numb |
| Too old to be clean far too young to be broken |
| Like an army we come |
| Cut back, left behind |
| I watched you self-destructing oh so many times |
| Shot down, once again |
| Sitting in a chair crying what am I going to do with my life? |
| Just learn to hide the way that you really feel |
| Never let them know that you’re scared |
| But understand that you’re not the special only one |
| Watch us now, watch us real close |
| Ch: How we all dance with this fire 'cause it’s all that we know |
| And as the spotlight turns toward us, we all try our best to show |
| We are lost we are freaks, we are crippled, we are weak |
| We are the heirs, we are the true heirs, to all the world |
| Let’s go build a fire down on the empty beach when the waves are crashing high |
| White heat purify, as the sparks fly up into the great black sky |
| Sacrifice these crutches to the crackling flames |
| Stand as silhouettes against the dawn |
| It’s far too late to try to sleep now, seems I’m never tired any more |
| Ch: I want to dance with this fire 'cause it’s all that I know. |
| . |
| We are lost we are freaks. |
| . |
| And we try our best to show. |
| . |
| I am lost… I’m a freak ha ha |
