lyrics

late tonight
I almost had to break curfew
ran to brush my teeth

the bathroom smelled
like bleach and liquid soap
unlike itself
'cause we had to clean it

punishment
for throwing off white streamers
decorating the teachers' cabin

if not for the moon
we could not make out
the tall figures
hiding in the trees

it's time to break through
you know we say
the same old tired syllables each day

sorry for the split
i really just need
any honest, novel thought to come out

lately I've been screaming
myself awake at night
recently been dreaming
something eating me alive

lately I've been screaming
just driving down the street
recently been dreaming
something new will find me
