LYRICS AND RIFF PLACEMENT
[INTRO]
[DELIRIUM VERSE W/ LEAD] X2
[VERSE] X2
We're now up here alone terror on the intercom can someone save us?
Systems malfunction blast it this damn machine over and out captain
[VERSE W/ DELIRIUM VERSE LEAD] X2
Something lurks creeps on the countertop somewhere behind you
Parasitic cyst I can't stand to watch it's coming up and out of your chest
[PHASE II] X3½
Remember when we were young
[DELIRIUM VERSE W/ LEAD] X2
Sit right up on the table a photograph of Earth feeding me a way back
Frightened I tear alone or maybe not the only one there
[BREAK]
Hello? Hello... when it rings will you answer?
[DELIRIUM VERSE W/ LEAD & INTRO]
There corner tall short stance it's you
Come on kill me
[PHASE III] X2
You made a good friend to me but while you were outnumbered and torn
They made us do things...
[CHORUS W/ LEAD] X4
Dear God, I don't feel alive when you're cut short of misery
Will you pray it be the end? Give a look surprise wide eyed to me
Then you'll know just what I am the scare that triggers your fear
Come know me in a different light, come know me as God
[PHASE III] X2
You made a good friend to me but while you were outnumbered and torn
They made us do things to you
[PHASE IV W/ LEAD] X4
Run sand hourglass in my time will I be worth?
Spin round carousel when your horse isn't screwed in
[PHASE V W/ LEAD] X6
[CHORUS W/ LEAD] X4
Dear God, I don't feel alive when you're cut short of misery (raise forth lost cause)
Will you pray it be the end? Give a look surprise wide eyed to me (raise forth lost cause)
Then you'll know just what I am (subtle demise the legitimate cry) the scare that triggers your fear
Come know me in a different light, come know me as God (raise forth lost cause)
