I don't know why I
Feed on emotion
There's a stomach inside my brain
I don't want to be heard
I want to be listened to
Does it bother anyone else that someone else has your name?
Does it bother anyone else that someone else has your name?
I scream you scream we all scream
Cause we're terrified of what's around the corner
We stay in place cause we don't want to lose our lives
So let's think of something better
Down in the forest
Well sing a chorus
One that everybody knows
Hands held higher
Well be on fire
Singing songs that nobody wrote
My brain has given up white flags are hoisted
I took some food for thought
It might be poisoned
The stomach in my brain
Throws up onto the page
Does it bother anyone else
That someone else has your name?
Does it bother anyone else
That someone else has your name?
I scream you scream we all scream
Cause we're terrified of what's around the corner
We stay in place cause we don't want to lose our lives
So let's think of something better
Down in the forest
Well song a chorus
One that everybody knows
Hands held higher
We'll be on fire
Singing songs that nobody wrote
Quickly moving towards a storm
Moving forward torn
Into pieces over reasons
Of what these storms are for
I don't understand why everything I adore
Takes a different form when I squint my eyes
Have you ever done that?
When you squint your eyes
And your eyelashes make it
look a little not right
And then when just enough light
Comes from just the right side and you find
You're not who you're supposed to be?
This is not who you're supposed to see
Please remember me
I am supposed to be
King of a kingdom or swinging on a swing
Something happened to my imagination
This situation's becoming dire
My free house is on fire
And for some reason I smell gas on my hands
This is not what I had planned
This is not what I had planned
Down in the forest
Well sing a chorus
Hands held higher
We'll be on fire
Singing songs that nobody wrote
Down in the forest
Well sing a chorus
One that everybody knows
Hands held higher
We'll be on fire
Singing songs that nobody wrote
Hands held higher
We'll be on fire
Hands held higher
We'll be on on fire
