interwebification - michigan, i'm outside lyrics
part i: the moment
i can’t die
i can’t die for you
i won’t fly
higher than i want to
you know i can’t
i won’t live
till i reach the corner of the room
i won’t leave
till i see the side of the moon
you know i won’t
don’t find help
you won’t need it
god bless michigan
part ii: world pretender
remember when i left
i always came home
with a broken neck
and a lost phone
and how i didn’t care
shocked audience members
n0body wanted less
time then they had
i couldn’t drag you down
cause then i’d lose a crown or
something else would happen
i’d only get a matress, oh
the tables turned too much
i’m spinning help me love
don’t wanna be tough
ever
you shocked me
when i left
you left me
when i stayed
and i write
about nothing
but i fight
still
do you remember
when n0body actually lived
for anything
but the top shelf
that you were on
i don’t care
what side i’m on
i don’t eat life
i try to keep off
when everybody
try not to be soft
and how they didn’t see
shocked world members
i try not to be
the world pretender
and when i came home
there was no broken neck
just a standard body
with secrets kept
but are they kept well?
we’ll never find out
and if we get the shelf
we’ll be on top
you shocked me
when i left
you left me
when i stayed
and i write
about nothing
but i fight
still
do you remember
when n0body actually lived
for anything
but the top shelf
that you were on
i don’t care
what side i’m on
you shocked me
when i left
you left me
when i stayed
and i write
about nothing
but i fight
still
part iii: air quotes
you know it ain’t right to be on the other side of the door
they want some more, you give them half decent
tony said you weren’t enough
rocking that red shirt whenever your around
my phone died, no releases for y’all
keep living it all
will you accept my fact?
will you accept my fate?
the people i hate hide away now
will you accept my line?
will you accept my time that i don’t have
give it back will you
oh, leaving is the best thing
better than hitting no paper
oh, giving is the best thing
not if you’re a life changer
put that in air quotes
feeling alone
by myself
will you accept my fact?
will you accept my fate?
the people i hate hide away now
will you accept my line?
will you accept my time that i don’t have
give it back will you
part iv: a test
i would never be honest
if i did, it’d be a mess
all the other kids
they know more than this
outside
n0body’s control
n0body’s in control
n0body keeps it hold up
did you leave yesterday?
i can’t hear you over the pain
it won’t last for years but i
hope it don’t keep breathing
all the other kids
they’re controlling this
outside
n0body’s control
n0body’s in control
n0body keeps it hold up
all the other kids
they can’t live like this
outside
again
keep up
again
remember how it was
do you
remember how it was
do you
live alone
part v: secret cold
don’t leave, michigan
i’ll be here to stay
if things don’t go my way
when you jump, do you sell out or in
angels sing about broken wings
when you know it, do you tell or lie
find the sky through broken eyes
don’t believe the paper you read
if you cannot breath, don’t ask them for help
cause when they drag you out the water they’ll put you lower on the shelf
if you try, maybe you can take them down as well
man, why do you only write about the things you hate in this life
open eyes, making judgments about your lies
talking about how they don’t work for sh-t other then a 1 up
shut up everybody’s thoughts so you can give them your own to use
for everything they say and do, turn them into walkers
what the h-ll is they and them, you are just talking
there’s a difference, conversation ain’t an art project
don’t keep missing the points that you left
when you jump, do you sell out or in
angels sing about broken wings
when you know it, do you tell or lie
find the sky through broken eyes
don’t leave, michigan
i’ll be here to stay
if things don’t go my way
i’ll go lower when i slow
down and i can’t retain the flow
out of water, the fishing bowl
don’t want to find a secret cold
life in a bas-m-nt then i know
why you don’t call me on the phone
rather see me in open locks
you’d grab cds to make it stop
i’d found out you didn’t care
about the life we made right here
inside this bowl there is a key
emotional precisely
don’t use those words unless they help
don’t make my demons scream and shout
back down the road that’s where i go
now i know
when you jump, do you sell out or in
angels sing about broken wings
when you know it, do you tell or lie
find the sky through broken eyes
part vi: parking lot
michigan, i’m outside
i wanted to jump back but no
sitting in the corner thinking that’s enough
nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
i ain’t tough
i ain’t rough
i wanted to get in but no
waiting in the corner thinking you too soft
nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
i ain’t tough
i ain’t rough
i wanted to jump back but no
sitting in the corner thinking that’s enough
nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
i ain’t tough
i ain’t rough
i wanted to get in but no
waiting in the corner thinking you too soft
nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
i ain’t tough
i ain’t rough
leave it where you found it again
door is open, locks undone and secrets fled
now we’re stuck in the parking lot getting shot, getting hot
better not leave so we can see them being
two sided people, heads screwed off
ego got chewed off
get a load of this guy in his bed screaming
for a lifeboat, unaware that he’s dreaming
don’t turn that god d-mn light off
step away if you ain’t got no scars across your chest
at our best, a lot less skeletons hiding in our laundry
get those thoughts off me
i can’t just give you everything, i ain’t a dictionary
open doors scare me
they remind me of my fate
i don’t hate where i’m going but if it changes me i’m dead
i wanted to jump back but no
i don’t need no sleeping pills man, that’s enough
when i left, i thought i lost a memory
nothing ever loses time off of me
don’t try rough
leave it soft
i ain’t tough
i ain’t rough
i wanted to jump back but no
sitting in the corner thinking that’s enough
nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
i ain’t tough
i ain’t rough
i wanted to get in but no
waiting in the corner thinking you too soft
nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
i ain’t tough
i ain’t rough
i wanted to jump back but no
sitting in the corner thinking that’s enough
nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
i ain’t tough
i ain’t rough
i wanted to get in but no
waiting in the corner thinking you too soft
nightgowns in the parking lot looking for love
i ain’t tough
i ain’t rough
michigan, i’m outside
