what a peculiar word
desire sits and thinks it over
a thought that's too unheard
to speak
so violent and absurd
the mirror shines its brightest over
a love unfairly spurned
to sleep
to violate control
asking questions is so easy
no answer to be told
for free
just to be made whole
well doesn't it seem so easy?
another lock is sold
no key

see you walking and I wanna be in your shoes
think I could wear them better than you
tell me now what would you do?
east side running, oh it's always something
west running, sun is coming up now
split middle now just like a peach pit
from the ash I scream
I wanna be somebody
I wanna be somebody
I wanna be somebody
I wanna be somebody else
hear you singing and I wanna have your voice
I would take it from you if it was my choice
think I could make better use of it
east side running, oh it's always something
west running, sun is coming up now
split middle now just like a peach pit
from the ash I scream
I wanna be somebody
I wanna be somebody
I wanna be somebody
I wanna be myself
get comfortable in your skin and bone
it's all you own

it's a question of ethics
it's paper and plastic
it's science and progress
it's burning natural gases
white coats and collars
philosophy buffs
stoners and sinners
and men in handcuffs
it's feeling so helpless
it's there's nothing to do
it's death and confusion
it's subjective truth
what's wrong and what's right
what's black and what's white
if you wanna ask questions
you better learn how to fight

it was supposed to be a service
to help the weak and the sick
how did it come to this?
prioritizing the profit
we don't give a shit
about the rate at which
the blood leaks from your mortal flesh
treatments are lucrative cures are for socialists
so take a ride on the scambulance
it'll take you where you need to be
you don't think it's too serious?
better to be safe than sorry
we don't give a shit
about the rate at which
you're charged by your insurance
we'll gladly capitalize on your sickness
anything for a cent
take a ride, we'll take a ride
take a ride, we'll take a ride
take a ride, we'll take a ride
we'll take them for a fucking ride
what's the purpose of progress
if it only serves a choice few?
I guess I haven't thought about it much
it's for the benefit of you

you wanna be somewhere you're not and you will never find
the little bit of peace that you were searching for
just beyond the reach of reason
chaos flows through you like a stream of piss
flowing from the god of treason himself
nothing to do to be or see like air
you can
you got another one oh god you are the little risk
you ought to get yourself to see the season
your lies sit down and you will never grow
to kill a god that you had always faced
and not to kid himself but he is fleeing
from something underneath the deepest well
you can
I would hope
to have hands
for one night
who
time to fall down
where I stand
but you said I
could not go
well did it chance you to the end I say
you kid yourself you wanna be something
you're not a god you are a tripping mess
I can't believe in anything but
you can
