I wanna take up the task of pulling the strings right out of you.
Hands are gritty and the weekends’ paper-cuts are nothing new.
I would await your arrival, but I'm going grey just watching you.
With 20/20 of your deepest visions soaked in Vali's and booze.
Your fortune ends as you leave the door ‘cause time and time again you’ll get locked out-that’s for sure.
Hit me in the place where it hurts- knock me off my feet to the ground.
Hit me with a taste of the dirt- shock me with the speed that you’ve found.
Go play- I’m serious.
Oh man I’m serious.
I wanna meet you in a field and pull out the voice that’s killing you.
I’ll take a fork and relieve all the pressure within and sully the gloom.
I wanna make you a rival animal idol with a view.
You never saw it but your neat feet needed another reason to bruise.
And your fortune ends as you leave the door ‘cause time and time again you’ll get locked out-that’s for sure.
I saw a sign of the boy of the new Pelican riders- they do no harm.
They want you to join them and change your bitter tune.
Get out of your hole and come and play.
Hit me in the place where it hurts- knock me off my feet to the ground.
Hit me with a taste of the dirt- shock me with the speed that you’ve found.
