every time i die
glitches
So long to young love I've anchored my heart Farewell to small joys I've burned down the bar I'm changing my name so I don't do no harm Some say it's vanity, some say it's charm  No levels, still the same old devils  Frightened of fear, a servant of time Kidnapped the queen, I have angered the hive Snuffed out the stars with celestial winds Ended a cycle that started again I stopped going out, they kept coming in Was I saving my soul or saving my skin?  No levels, still the same old devils  Can't hold it close, can't let it go Prisons in basements in slick model homes  I'm just a day-tripper on sacred terrain My transformation went from mangled to tame I don't feel different but I don't feel the same I'm afloat with an ear to the ground I built a fortress with some books and a phrase I felt some heat so I came out of the haze I saw the end and I was truly afraid I have begged but I'm still not allowed  It's a trap, lay the bait, catch the rat It's a trap, lay the bait, catch the rat  Flew home and left the unknown in the lurch Kept finding bodies, I called off the search Went to a hymn from a funeral dirge Church in the hospital, dog in the church  No levels, still the same old devils  Shepherd me back, this time I know I don't know nothing, I'm not in control  Mindful but gutless Mindful but gutless Mindful but gutless Mindful but gutless  There's no need to panic No need to panic
