The Strays

I still cheer for you, Ten years down the line Time's 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 stardust 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 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
