[Instrumental Opening] [Verse 1] I used to be a six sided dice Loaded with parasites But one day I rolled Across a centerfold, And on the page was scripture Over cynical pictures And I had this thought Sounding like an umlaut, Maybe I could change the tone From the mind leak barbitone Hypnotizing my insides Killing me with pesticides Designed specifically with The inhalation of Eskalith To change a right side sort of guy To a man who sees out his third eye, And just maybe the shadows With red eyes fallowed Would remain uncultivated For the season that culminated In the eventual takeover Of the four leaf clover That protected my nescience Shrouded in obsolescence, Cause they don’t know God Lives behind my facade Of pure rigidness And complete lucidness That hides the stage, Of my eternal rage… [Instrumental Bridge] [Chorus] And I’m good And I’m fine Don’t break inside The place I died, There’s ticking gears Shredding scraps of thought Counting down the years Til I’m ought but naught, And I’m good And I’m fine Don’t open wide The place I cried, There’s kicking tiers Spreading gaps of taut Between all my fears Til I’ve wrought but ought, And this page Through my rage… [Instrumental Bridge] [Verse 2] So I’ve got to hide Before you can slide The stick of sticky sharp truths That’s been used on countless youths To make me desolate But somehow adequate For all the plans From your main mans, And I swear I’m not that rare I’m a dime a dozen Fresh out of the oven And I get that I’m fresh The perfect suit of flesh But can’t you see I’m a chickadee Too nascent to be In your potpourri, I’m a man to himself Broken in itself And from me to yourself I’ll keep to oneself, I’m sure you get The plate that’s set To pay my debts For you to forget The wrongs I write In the midst of night The girls on sight The ones that bite, You don’t want to know What’s deep below The drugs you provide To be my guide, But I’ll say this It’s dying bliss The pain I force And all the worse I make their time Is so sublime… You can’t assuage, Eternal rage… [Instrumental Bridge] [Bridge] I’ve scribbled death In single breaths And torn out hair Just for flair, I’ve destroyed a million And considered a billion Ways to end This game of pretend, One day the haze That will fade, And underneath I’ll bare my teeth… [Instrumental Bridge] [Chorus] And I’m good And I’m fine Don’t break inside The place I died, There’s ticking gears Shredding scraps of thought Counting down the years Til I’m ought but naught, And I’m good And I’m fine Don’t open wide The place I cried, There’s kicking tiers Spreading gaps of taut Between all my fears Til I’ve wrought but ought, And this page Through my rage… [Instrumental Bridge] [Outro] You expect me to say That in the end I’ll pay But there is no word Of a black bird, I’ve broken free Of the idea of me And there’s no number To limit my hunger, I follow no code That’s been sewed, I am the man who died And the one who rised, To spite the stage That you’ve raised Just for me to page My eternal rage… And I’m good And I’m fine And I’m good And I’m fine And I’m good And I’m fine… And I’m good And I’m fine But not this time… [Instrumental Fade Out] assuage, Eternal rage… [Instrumental Bridge] [Bridge] I’ve scribbled death In single breaths And torn out hair Just for flair, I’ve destroyed a million And considered a billion Ways to end This game of pretend, One day the haze That will fade, And underneath I’ll bare my teeth… [Instrumental Bridge] [Chorus] And I’m good And I’m fine Don’t break inside The place I died, There’s ticking gears Shredding scraps of thought Counting down the years Til I’m ought but naught, And I’m good And I’m fine Don’t open wide The place I cried, There’s kicking tiers Spreading gaps of taut Between all my fears Til I’ve wrought but ought, And this page Through my rage… [Instrumental Bridge] [Outro] You expect me to say That in the end I’ll pay But there is no word Of a black bird, I’ve broken free Of the idea of me And there’s no number To limit my hunger, I follow no code That’s been sewed, I am the man who died And the one who rised, To spite the stage That you’ve raised Just for me to page My eternal rage… And I’m good And I’m fine And I’m good And I’m fine And I’m good And I’m fine… And I’m good And I’m fine But not this time… [Instrumental Fade Out]
