THE RESCUE #4

work sucks man

lyrics

oh, i say i wanna get away
i want away so get me out of here
sometimes i wanna disappear
i wanna hike right into hell

and four years of progress hold me tight
put myself to bed at night
so i can get up tomorrow, save my sorrow for the
same old same old

and i wanna burn my eyes and
sear my retinas in with the purest
light in the universe
streaming through my skin
break my stem cells in

i don't wanna write my name down
it's not worth sticking around
from what I've seen

I sit and listen to the sound
in this new life that I have found
slowly killing me

and I'm sitting in my place
and blue-stained life breaks in my face
show me all the beauty i can take
show me more wealth than i can make

time's up! forget my happiness
lock in emotional crap with this
shelf that i am stacking so that
i don't starve
in my rented room

i sit and stare at the wall
try to remember what it's for
i want to feel my brain breath

this isn't worth my time at all
i should just make my excuses and leave
i just don't see it in me

climb the holy tower
just to see the sea
daydream in the shower
things that i have seen

radioactive flowers
leak into my dreams
signing away my hours
took more from me than it seemed it
would do i, guess that showed me

i wanna hike right into hell
just for the stories i could tell
break my stem cells in

i won't ever write my name down
it's not worth sticking around
i'll make my excuses and leave

i sit and stare at the wall
but can't remember what it's for
climb up that holy tower

and i dream of saying my goodbyes
someday before the day i die
before the day i die
