[Verse 1]
Light a match, blaze a trail
Burning out in the details
Take a punch, win the fight
Up is down and wrong is right
Why do the keys of this city
Get lost between the praise and the pity?
I'm kicking down doors again
While all the walls are caving in
[Chorus]
I get so high to feel so low
The more I learn, the less I know
I don't wanna sell out
But I keep bowing down to the paranoia in my head
'Cause the devil's got the scissors, and I'm hanging by a thread
[Verse 2]
Look for the truth, still spreading lies
Either I can't see or everybody's blind
Who's got my back, who's in my way?
Who's got a clean soul anyway?
The snakes keep slithering in
They all say they're my friend
[Chorus]
I get so high to feel so low
The more I learn, the less I know
I don't wanna sell out
But I keep bowing down to the paranoia in my head
'Cause the devil's got the scissors, and I'm hanging by a thread
[Bridge]
Troubadours, tax collectors
Government spies and lie detectors
Wayward sons, prodigal daughters
A golden child can't help but wander
Why do I always swim upstream?
Why, why, why?
[Outro]
I get so high to feel so low
The more I learn, the less I know
I don't wanna sell out
But I keep bowing down to the paranoia in my head
'Cause the devil's got the scissors, and I'm hanging by a—
The devil's got the scissors, and I'm hanging by a—
The devil's got the scissors, and I'm hanging by a thread
I'm hanging by a thread
