Monsters

I was hanging upside-down from the overpass

Waiting to discover something about the world

I couldn't get with the program

And I couldn't listen to them

It was like trying to think in reverse

And I don't want to slide into apathy

And I don't want to die in captivity

But these monsters

Follow me around

Hunting me down

Try to wipe me out

Wipe me out

Wipe me out

Wipe me out

Yeah I was hiding away underwater

Waiting for distance and buying some time

Trying to be two hundred thousand years younger

So I could excuse myself from human kind

Coz I don't want to be a container

Or a bastard with a ten page disclaimer

But these monsters

Spin me around

Get me down!

Just try to shut me out

Shut me out

Shut me out

Shut me out

Hold it in your hand

Hold it in your hand

Hold it in your hand

Believe it me, believe in it, believe

(Shut me out)

I was hiding away underwater

Waiting for distance, waiting for time.

And I don't want to slide into apathy, and I don't

And I don't want to live in captivity

Ohh ohh ohh, Ohh Ohh Ohhhh

(Shut me out)
