Verse 1

Stapled shut Inside an

outside world and I'm

Sealed in tight

Bizarre but right at home

Claustrophobic

Closing in and I'm

Catastrophic Not again

I’m smeared across the page

And doused in gasoline

I wear you like a stain Yet

I'm the one who's obscene

Catch me up on all your sordid

little indiscretions

I've got no time to lose I'm just

caught up in all the cattle

Refrain 1

Frey the strings

Throw the shapes…

Hold your breath…

Listen!

Chorus

I am a world before I am a man

I was a creature before I could stand

I will remember before I forget

Before I forget that!

(Repeat)

Interlude

C#m---E

Verse 2

I'm ripped across the ditch

And settled in the dirt and I

Wear you like a stitch

Yet I'm the one who's hurt

Pay attention to your

twisted little indiscretions

I've got no right to win I'm

just caught up in all the battles

Refrain 2

Locked in clutch

Pushed in place

Hold your breath

Listen!

(Repeat Chorus)

Interlude

D--B--C#m--G#m-- x2

Bridge

My end

It justifies my means

All I ever do is delay

My every attempt to evade

The end of the road and my end

My end

It justifies my means

All I ever do is delay

My every attempt to evade

The end of the road

(Repeat Chorus thrice)

Outro

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
