How close the call was
We hardly escaped
Before we threw ourselves away
We tried it one last time
Cause, we're addicted to failure
And the feelings it inspires
Cause, we're all just animals cloaked in fear
And showing our teeth when our enemies draw near
And, we spill thier blood like it was their gift to give
We shut ourselves down
We shut ourselves down
We shut ourselves out
And, then we beg to come back in
I can't believe it takes a genius
To complicate what's simple
When we all know science is just a symbol
For the kind of men who never find love
And never truly know what life's about
We shut ourselves down
We shut ourselves down
We shut ourselves out
And, then we beg to come back in
Who hurt you
Who drove you to this insanity
And, who broke your heart as a child
Because, that's the answer
And, that's the gift they gave you
