Glitches

So long to young love I've anchored my heart

Farewell to small joys I've burned down the bar

I'm changing my name so I don't do no harm

Some say it's vanity, some say its charm

No levels, still the same old devils

Frightened of fear, a servant of time

Kidnapped the queen, I have angered the hive

Snuffed out the stars with celestial winds

Ended a cycle that started again

I stopped going out, they kept coming in

Was I saving my soul or saving my skin?

No levels, still the same old devils

Can't hold it close, can't let it go

Prisons in basements in slick model homes

I'm just a day-tripper on sacred terrain

My transformation went from mangled to tame

I don't feel different but I don't feel the same

I'm afloat with an ear to the ground

I built a fortress with some books and a phrase

I felt some heat so I came out of the haze

I saw the end and I was truly afraid

I have begged but I'm still not allowed

It's a trap, lay the bait, catch the rat

It's a trap, lay the bait, catch the rat

Flew home and left the unknown in the lurch

Kept finding bodies, I called off the search

Went to a hymn from a funeral dirge

Church in the hospital, dog in the church

No levels, still the same old devils

Shepherd me back, this time I know

I don't know nothing, I'm not in control

Mindful but gutless

Mindful but gutless

Mindful but gutless

Mindful but gutless

There's no need to panic

No need to panic
