16 Years

The sun flies through the sky, leaves darkness in its wake

And now I hear the hellhounds barking at the gate

To be honest, sometimes I want you to relate

This ain't up for discussion, it's not a topic for debate

Entrepreneurs that want to bottle up the hate

And slap a label on the glass so hard that it'll break

If you break it you buy it, and we sold it by the case

It's okay if you just try it, you can hold it to your face

How close can you get without touching it?

How far removed can you get from the public?

Can you keep a secret?

If not, can you tie a slipknot?

Can you stand high up on this brick block?

Listen to the clock tick-tock and switch gears

It's been 1 2 3 4 5 6 years

Are they all dancing now? Are you joining the party?

Are you celebrating your life just by destroying your body?

It's a part of your psyche that I want to sightsee

I don't need you as a tour guide, and I dont want you to like me

I was voted least likely

That's it just least likely

So pardon me if I seem fiesty

Bite my tongue like a bullet, take a pull from the peace pipe

Push past the low expectations of me each night

I leave light in my wake and I moonwalk across the floor

Until I hear the sex kittens all purring at the door

There's something outside that we all want

But inside there's an ex who marks a soft spot

'Til it rots and decays and then no one else cares

It's been 7 8 9 10 11 12 years

Now I sell pennies to the well-wishers

Fish through the coinslots

I fall for a girl's bait, participate in boycotts

I demonstrate a demon's trade

With a face void of thoughts

If that don't launch a thousand ships

Than that's Helen of Troy's loss

There's nothing in this horse

It's hollow, it's empty, its entry will not be forced

Like an eyesocket stripped clean of tears

It's been 13 14 15 16 years

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
