This time, I'm gonna try it my way, I'm gonna live life my way. I'm trying to keep my back from the wall. Nothing really matters when you call out my name. I think about how long it would take them to blow us away, but I won't get me down. I'm just thankful to be facing the day. Crazy as it sounds, I need you around. Before the ocean I've prayed, and I said your name. All the things I tried to say, were never easy to explain, they were always meant for you. Our robot masters will know, how to clean this mess up, and build a better world. 54,000 claws digging and scratching. Does it really have to be so hard? Is there any way that I can be, to get you really to look at me? Are you really gonna let me go, you could put up a fight you know. I'm just your alibi, but I'd rather be your partner in crime. They say time heals everything, but I'm still waiting. I'm through with doubt, there's nothing left for me to figure out. I've paid a price, and I'll keep paying. I hope my little brother puts a call into me. I'm gonna break these wicked chains to protect me. It's a perfect sin, close your eyes and lose the rest, It's a perfect sin, close your mind and feel the best. I put gin in my milk, to kill all the drugs. I really like you, but I'm nothing like you. No-one gives a fuck about the values I would die for. (Now chill for a moment.) Last call, barhopping...we've gotten so far. So close to the edge, the edge, we're flipping a coin. I just want your love. I am an artist, I am an art bitch, I sell my paintings to the men I eat. I am so hardcore. See me driving down the street, I'm bored with looking good. The cops are coming. I listen to the music with no fear, you can hear it too if you're sincere. You say there's nothing wrong but I don't hear. I will burn your love letters. Just give us a moment and gimme the sound. I'm a seasick sailor on a ship of noise. Roar! Karma police, I've given all I can, it's not enough, I've given all I can.
