lyrics

LYRICS:

saw my way through the alley of space on the way to the gutter of time
worked my way till the structure collapsed goin forward on a vertical line
don't know why it's gotta be that way, as the expectations destroy
all of your systems and theories and plans another way to keep the sickness employed

that's why i'm stuck here that's why i live here that's why i'm haunting where it wants me to thrive
another truck steers towards a big pier because because ghosts suspect i might not survive

they line me in row and they tell me what to do and they tell me not to live in a hive
drive me back to the city in space and they tell us not to go for a ride
undercover in a mafia den with a cellophane face mask i found
wallkin into the magical space but the chosen ones don't want me around

that's why i'm stuck here that's why i live here that's why i'm haunting where it wants me to thrive
another truck steers towards a big pier because because ghosts suspect i might not survive
