aaron malone – life stages lyrics

i am a monster
in the body of a boy
the others never let me play
can’t understand their joy
so i build castles in the sand
i don’t know that i’m alone
i’m sure this is normal
no need to leave my home
older now, something’s awry
walked the playground’s every end
i do not belong to others
i need to climb the fence
but there’s timed bells and rules
doesn’t matter what i say
do it their way or else
i was not raised to be a slave…
i have no money or fame
to make it worse, i’m small
no politics on my side
no friends to pitch in
people tell me what to do
that love and pain are delivered as the same
but it’s no subst-tute for comfort
i am not the one who’s insane
what got me through is patience
i’ll never blink
i will out-wait you
i’ll swim as you sink
i cannot win a fight
but i will break your will
you must prove your point
i only wish to k!ll

but i’m trying real hard to be good
i’ll convince you you’ve already won
you’ll stop caring and move on
this war of attrition is done
finally on my own
i live every man’s dream
every day as i will
i feel free
my skin is finally getting comfortable
no need for anything
another’s skin found me worthwhile
it’s good to feel the sting
i’ve been validated
a monster’s not what i am
but that’s what they want now
a punisher of man
exciting. different. never boring
adventure into energy p-sses
no story ever lived twice
then the shelf collapses…
something else is out there
it’s calling out to me
i don’t care to listen
and now my head is pounding
my time is short
i was sent here on a mission
if i do not complete
back to the starting position
i don’t care what’s after death
so long as it’s not here
i must be the -ssistant
until the coast is clear

i wished to be an architect
an athlete or actor
this new found information
turns my plan into disaster
least i have to do it over again
this is one will i must succ-mb
i’ll carry out my purpose
fe fi fo fum
into a lighthouse in los angeles
the castle in the sand has grown
all but lost among the casinos
once again, i stand alone
many still have found me
tried their hand, played their game
i may forget what we did
but i remember all their names
presumed rewards for my efforts
there is joy to be found
the mission must be complete now
there are spoils to go around
there is love for monsters
there are friends for beasts
there is a place for oddb-lls
i can use my voice to speak
how to find one’s destiny
became easiest thing in the world
the path has been laid out
just go in the direction most natural
i feel my time is almost up
i’m exhausted from the chase
there’s the off-chance i’m crazy and just getting old
on the off-chance i’m not, i’m writing just in case
