Run and tell your mother
Your heart's gone, you're her setting son
Were you robbed today?
My shallow pockets march the deep parade.
Doctors are songs that never get sung
The debt gets high, it thinks it's won
Will you rob today?
By keeping brains alive
The tired body never sleeps
A tired life of thinking
Got no one to blame
So you tell stories
Till it's all blurry
Strong man seems made of straw
Sidewalk, the street sees you
Spending your life smashing radios
The serial time killer
Speak so I can hear you
I wanna know, but the TV's on
Who you robbed today
Our short attentions march in lemming parades.
All in rows
And getting old
Hands raised in clean white clothes
But no one owes us anything...it's easy
So banks and lawyers made heaven free
And sleep
Could raise the dead
And time
Could have them all marching
Clean me off, I just want to care again
Clean me off, I've been digging graves again
Time breeds killers
