Cherophobe

Break the world over your knee

Show us that you meant what you said

Show us that you started with the best, the best intentions

Hold us all in your hands

Then clench your fist and start another war

Show us that you started with the best, the best intentions

Crack the whip

And hold up a gun against my head

Leave me here for dead

Cock the gun

And pull the trigger, then turn around to run

Oh, face up to what you've done

I'm only crying 'cause you're not

Oh, how do you stay so calm

When the people 'round you want you to fall?

I'm only trying 'cause you don't

Oh, how do you keep so clean

When the stains surround me?

Stop the kids who pray for more

Then smite the ones who will not pray at all

Show us that you started with the best, the best intentions

Crack the whip

And break my back, I'm just a stubborn sewer rat

I'm destined for the rack

Hit and run

Chew me up and leave me stranded in the mud

Oh, face up to what you've done

I'm only crying 'cause you're not

Oh, how do you stay so calm

When the people 'round you want you to fall?

I'm only trying 'cause you don't

Oh, how do you keep so clean

When the stains surround me?

I'm a lost boy trying to understand

God knows I'm trying, but she won't lend a hand

She's busy covering up her mess

I'm just a lost boy trying to understand

My thoughts when I'm happy, I'm waiting for the drop
