Teenage Wasteland

Verse 1
Stay close and do nothing
Climbing through the darkness
The suicidal mind
Man against himself
Step back from the exit
All maps welcome
Before the robots
A heartbeat behind
In search of wings
Looking out, looking in
Feel the fear and do it anyway
Coming apart
You just don't understand
From pieces to weight
One nation under therapy

Verse 2
Good morning midnight
Fresh wind, fresh fire
A cup of coffee
Shifting gears
In smog and thunder
People move on
Radical desire
Turn on, tune in, drop out

Bridge
Disindentifications
The broken image
The everlasting hatred
Pretending to be normal
Under and alone
The breakdown lane
Through the storm
Remember to breathe

Chorus
Unscramble my brains
The lies of the world have taken hold
For seven years I've been digging through this bin
Of teenage wasteland
Unscramble my brains
The lies of the world have taken hold
For seven years I've been stuck in teenage wasteland
