What I've Become

to the mountain i belong

there’s no escaping

what i’ve become

and there’s one truth

and one alone

and beside it

there’s the danger zone

no place for thought

or so i’ve heard

there is only awe

for the written word

and i found some love

i found some sin

some from above

some from within

and he goes, “oh oh oh oh”

at the front door

devil’s outside

and he’s hungry

for more

and past your houses, past your lawns

there’s no word 

for what i’ve become

and there is no curse

there is no bone

there is only an undertone

and it will not last

or so i’ve heard

i’ll be free at last

from the written word

and i pull out a ladder

i reach for the phone

i pull up a chair

just to hear his low, low moan

and he goes “oh, oh oh, oh”

for many a day

and many a night

and he’s burning

and i did find some love

i did find some sin

some came from above

the rest from within

and he goes “oh oh oh oh”

at the front door

devil’s inside

and he’s hungry for more

and this chaos is on me

chaos is on me

chaos is on me

and it will come to you

it will come to you
