Amidst the canteens and vitamins 
Amongst the lit up liturgical themes 
There were breaks in the code, yes, I heard: 
Spoken cues inside mechanical birds 
Clocked in at 7:09 
I took the stenograph out for a spin 
You were searching for The Party Within 
I was typing out the language of men 
And with that we begin 
Hello, My Destroyer, Can I Destroy You? 
Meanwhile, in somebody's dream 
I was stabbed in the back constantly 
I grew to take it as a compliment 
Cuz I can take it if y'all have to vent 
There were starlit nights in the grove 
Where we sucked out the gin from our sleeves 
They we took aim at the thoughts in the eaves 
Now this next part is hard to believe 
But it's true, I reprise 
Hello, My Destroyer, Can I Destroy You? 
Can I Destroy You? 
Can I Destroy You? 
And then right on cue 
You could destroy me too 
Hellhound in the foyer 
Fooled again by mannequins 
We escape again 
From the straight jacket 
It's alarming, man 
But it's nothing you can't stand 
You're a full grown human man 
Hello, My Destroyer, Can I Destroy You? 
Can I Destroy You? 
Can I Destroy You? 
And then right on cue 
You could destroy me too
