Today we have just scratched the surface Here lies your hopes and dreams Mary Magdalene would merely laugh at me Meadows of chloroform and chemical winds bypass my every thought but then again Maybe I am not a disaster and maybe this is just a test The strong willed and strong stomached gasp at the sight of this What treachery is love and why is it not forbidden What lovely tragedy, oh, what a comedy You crave and thrive on drama and you are so two-faced Even Jesus Christ is fooled I am but a morsel lacking morals towards the monstrosities and the ill mannered Flying high on the backs of the enemy Laughing despicably Uncontrollably Gasping for every breath Drowning in what seems to be nothing besides oxygen I am a train wreck I am a car crash My fumes will spread near and far Not as far as I'd like them to But far enough to make the world know That I am here and suffering *Please let me off easy I'll do anything Please let me off easy* Broken, beaten, battered, battled Bestowed on top of the highest mountain The clouds are my escape and I pray that I never have to return home *What is life without a little bit of adventure What is a nightmare without a little bit of terror* Life is a thunderstorm and I am a chain-link fence It was all very shocking at first At least I am used to it by now

I Am Used To It
Today we have just scratched the surface Here lies your hopes and dreams Mary Magdalene would merely laugh at me Meadows of chloroform and chemical winds bypass my every thought but then again Maybe I am not a disaster and maybe this is just a test The strong willed and strong stomached gasp at the sight of this What treachery is love and why is it not forbidden What lovely tragedy, oh, what a comedy You crave and thrive on drama and you are so two-faced Even Jesus Christ is fooled I am but a morsel lacking morals towards the monstrosities and the ill mannered Flying high on the backs of the enemy Laughing despicably Uncontrollably Gasping for every breath Drowning in what seems to be nothing besides oxygen I am a train wreck I am a car crash My fumes will spread near and far Not as far as I'd like them to But far enough to make the world know That I am here and suffering *Please let me off easy I'll do anything Please let me off easy* Broken, beaten, battered, battled Bestowed on top of the highest mountain The clouds are my escape and I pray that I never have to return home *What is life without a little bit of adventure What is a nightmare without a little bit of terror* Life is a thunderstorm and I am a chain-link fence It was all very shocking at first At least I am used to it by now
