lyrics
soon the stares catch
we begin to kill the calm as we
feed on the fascts let's give in
let's give in to give more
still on the knees
such a shame
the cat's up and run away
scratched at me first
then the boy
gonna panic for a little more
watch the tail boy
watch the tail
like to be feeling the sand
bring color
back to both my arms the sun
let it do damage like the said it
would if given chance
had to be shouting your voices
scheming devils
never make it through
hey, way to go lad
hey way to go (can't wait to go)
closing out all my tabs
tighten down the pitiful
leave you with a pen
write it down
or you know what you can do
with that
watch the tail boy
watch the tail
Let's let the panic bloom
could help us all end up in the
clear
then let the havoc choose
to shape us all, push us to invent
we can feed of shame all day
we could feed off shame all day
