knife that cuts into my hand and I wanna be scattered from here in this catapult What a big baby won't somebody save me please You won't find nobody home Verse 2: (same as first) all of these quiet battered voices wait for the hunger to come we got little revolvers and stupid choices and no one to say when we're done (Well I don't wanna bring you down) I wanna be the light that burns out your eyes 'cause I know there's little things about me that would sing in this silence of so much rejection in every connection I make I can't find nobody home Solo:
