Trapped in this icy white box
Through a small opening
I see rabbits and seagulls
Stunned by season's verve
I slide down the street
The car pushes my dead weight
I hide; I'm twitching and all
With very little nerve

She reaches out
You pull back
With open arms
You curl into a ball
She tries to embrace
You roll over her back
She stands still
Waiting to weep

Your the new puppy dog that wants to be loved
She's the old footstool that has your love

You watch it happen all in front of them
You see your older self but he knows you more
You struggle to realize, but you tell the footstool she did a good job

I'll be sure to shut myself down for you
The silent screen that ****** so loud
I'll be sure to let them all heckle
As I pass on to the next crowd

I can hear their laughter but never their hearts
Because I'm the guilty one that never fights back
I'm the one that should be a miserable ****
Because everything is so happy go lucky

I'm the one shunned from the core of the earth
I'm the one left outside, ****** on like a ****

I saw the difference right there
One look and I'm talking to myself
So I ran home away from you

Sedated under condition
Once so loving and free
But then I spoiled it
So I ran home away from you too

Found a match
Caused a spark
Never heard from again
So I ran home away from that as well

I don't know you but I'm scared you'll bite my neck
So I'm just gonna stay right here at home
While the rest of you go to sleep in your pall

I'm sorry
I won't do that again
I just can't help myself

Overwhelmed with feeling
Warm water filling me up
I release, I try so hard
I won't do that again

Your Nonno is staring at me
You've swam past me and
you've touched me

I release, I try so hard
I will wait until I shower
Where no one can see me
Except for your Nonno
Who will **** me in my sleep

Maybe I'm empathizing a nervousness you don't even have
Maybe I'm scared of who I really am
Maybe I'll just laugh
