The Strays

I'd still cheer for you

Ten years down the line

Time

Stepped away from me

Stained with tiger stripes

Losing all your lives

Stray from this boring dream

What must it be like

With your world alight

Hard to swallow

But hunger's the best spice

Catch a warrior's eye

With an asteroid's sigh

Stray

How could I stay here and rust

When I'm set to explode?

You can outrun everything

But the debts that you owe

You think I'm vicious

But you don't know what vicious is

I'm numb from the distance

So stub out the stars on my wrist

Stub out the stars on my wrist

If it's just the bored

Asking this kind of thing

Where do we fit in?

Watch the star dust rise

With your reddened eyes

Take what you want from it

We're the last ones left

Left to convalesce

Get the others

And cut to the next Scene

To be truly free

Freedom comes not from, but through me

Take

How could I stay here and rust

When I'm set to explode?

You can outrun everything

But the debts that you owe

You think I'm vicious

But you don't know what vicious is

I'm numb from the distance

So stub out the stars on my wrist

Stub out the stars on my wrist

Do you remember when the stars

Were much higher?

You would try to count them all

But you grew tired - tired - tired

How could I stay here and rust

When I'm set to explode?

You can outrun everything

But the debts that you owe

You think I'm vicious

But you don't know what vicious is

I'm numb from the distance

So stub out the stars on my wrist

Stub out the stars on my wrist
