You thought you knew me well,

My glass heart and all.

Well doesn't it fuck

To see me bounce back off the wall?

You take it like the gun

Shoved to you your brain.

To-me-it's just bad blood

That I need to throw away.

::chorus::
Severed from the soul,

I try to drag the slack.

Just nine feet away,

And I'm still not comin' back.

So kill me for getting away!

Now I've got this hole

Between her and I.

She's screamin' in a voice

That's making me blind.

I'd just like to glide!

Where-everyone's on high.

Why'd'ya put these words

In this idle mouth of mine?

::chorus::
Severed from the soul,

I try to drag the slack.

Just nine feet away,

And I'm still not comin' back.

::chorus 2::

My friends turn their eyes

I still plant my shoes.

I'm threatened with this life,

But I'm still not wantin' you.

So kill me for getting away!

I'd rather live in the peace and laughter

Then determine your day, today.

And while I lie alone,

I'll take in this lovely space.

And finally my breath

Won't hurt going down.

While I'm getting away,
