lyrics

Verse 1:
I'm coming unglued and I blame it all faith. All on faith.
The back of my head has a target you can't miss. You can't miss.
You can see it when I walk.
Chorus:
Everything is perfect, but I don't want it anymore.
Just loosen up your voice and let it out.
Kill the singer, then write a letter saying you're sorry for the mess.
Verse 2:
I'm down on my knees praying for my second wind. A second wind.
My personality spills all over the microphone. Shocked by the microphone.
Don't touch it. You'll regret it.
Chorus:
Everything is perfect, but I don't want it anymore.
Just loosen up your voice and let it out.
Kill your talent, then get it back by carving your soul with a knife.
Bridge:
I love you, Crooked Rain.
But you make me feel so weak.
Oh Stephen, how you play...
You make it look so easy.
I love you, Figure 8.
But you make me feel so sad.
Lose all hope, then panic.
I wish you had more time to live.
Bridge 2:
Act pervasive, then gain attention in this paradox I'm on.
Strap on my hard hat, then prepare while drops of guilt fall on my head.
If you can't beat them then join them.
It's too late now, it's too late now.
Defeat their annoyance.
You can't stick to everything you know.
Chorus:
Everything is perfect, but I don't want it anymore.
Just loosen up your voice and let it out.
Kill your fanbase, burn their records then confiscate their merchandise.
