[Verse 1]
I count the time I've pissed away in hiding
And I count on finding solace in their song
But in pacing through these halls
Digging nails into the walls
I’ve grown tired of their prying eyes a-spyin'

[Verse 2]
They say the life you got is what you make it
But I've starved myself in comfort for too long
I’m invigored with a drive
A crusade to feel alive
So let's bounce before they wake up and they find me

[Chorus]
Grab your bootstraps, boys
Buckle up
And we out on the loose
(You can't escape us!
Nah, we c-c-comin' for ya)
Got my two step
Winning grin
My finger guns are ready to shoot
(Ooh wah wah wah-ooh, wah wah oohwah)
I'm gonna dance all night
I got a hankerin' to shake off some blues
(You done a bunk, we'll get you, boo)
[Verse 3]
At first I find the atmosphere delicious
As I join them in their jaunty jamboree
Then a crack and I can hear
The neurotic itching fear
Of the amplifying dissonance behind me

[Verse 4]
They say you oughta dance like no one's watching
They’re a telepathic chorus in my mind
With their laser guided eyes
Firing leers as sharp as knives
A pariah gone awry
Ah, just come find me

[Chorus]
Strap my boots down, girls
Buckle up
And I’m back in the noose
(You can't escape it!
Nah, we g-g-gotcha gotcha!)
I feel your cold grip
Chilling grin
Bringing tons of nothing to lose
(Ooh wah wah wah-ooh, wah wah oohwah)
I’ve had enough limelight
Oh won't you tuck me in and sing me the blues?
(Welcome home we missed you)
[Bridge]
Sing me sweetly to my doom
And I know there's no escaping
I'll wait it out
I’m the one on the line here
So I'm getting my fill
And if you had just what I need
I wouldn't want it now

Brother, sister, please don't shame me
Silence so loud
But I promise I'm fine here
I'm just getting my fill
And if you had just what I need
I wouldn't want it now
But I need it now

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
And I know there's no escaping
I can't hold out
I don't know that I'm fine here
But I'm getting my fill
And if you had just what I need
I think I want it now
This ain't how my mama raised me
Silence so loud
But I'm out of time
They're coming in for the kill
Say that you got just what I want
Because I need it
Gimme all you got
Because if not
They're gonna drown me out
