picture yourself

mind like a switchblade

heart doubled over in pain

you let your body overflow

hide your instinct good and deep 

as the world just goes to hell

throw my clothes out in the street

and hang me on your wall 



cause everyone's in ecstasy 

underneath it all

and everybody's lonely 

no one there at all

but is anybody happy 

or is it just the alcohol?

i don't know, i don't know

all i really know is

i don't know, i don't know 



now your sisters have gone, one by one

one took jesus, one took the gun

and each song leads to one more song

the future on your back

i guess i should feel lucky just to

get to be your past 



and i never saw your world come down,

that familiar sound.

and i never thought you would pull me down,

that the world would pull me down.
