Heart attack
Jack-in-the-box
I've been here so long
I'm starting to rot
And you're taking my fear
Selling it in jars
(3x)
Verse
Back on the playground
My knee socks are bloody
I need someone
To toss the confetti
At the ticker-tape parade
I'm throwing for myself
Look to the floor
She used to be pretty
Don't say a word
But she's drying out slowly
You have the answers
I have the car keys___
Verse
Lightning rod
Strapped to my shoulders
I'm searching through windows
For rain and for thunder
That could bring to a merciful end
This overdrawn wait
Verse
Carpet burns
Up to my elbows
It's time that you learn
I guess I should tell you
That the things you know about me
Never were true
Look to the floor
I used to be pretty
Don't say a word
But I'm drying out quickly
You have the answers
