lyrics

His fingernails are slipping on the onyx that has petrified his heart
The warning signs have rusted and the guide rails have all fallen apart
He’s clinging to the edge right now and every single flex is fueled with rage
And when you’re on the edge like that you’re just a beast that cornered in it’s cage
You’re in the corner on the wall, you're on the edge waiting to fall
He has the rage to kill us all, oh but he waits, why does he stall
It could be something in his soul, the one he sold to reach his goal
He grits his teeth and plays his role and wishes he was never cast to begin with
Elect to choose abstain to vote our hero doesn't care either way
When he was young that was his dream but now they have both faded into gray Years of that dream has worn out all of the elastic in his face
When every smile covers a frown connect the dots he hardly has the will to trace
We join him now in his back room, his smile is dead inside this tomb
It’s like a huge postpartum womb, the girl comes in, there’s fighting soon As he says to his wife so kind, you wouldn’t get it, never mind
I’m the happiest man you’ll ever find, the happiest man you’ll ever find
