lyrics

oh poor baby, are you feeling left out?
did the demons in your heart put the silence in your shout?
now you're the wax left on the sides of the candle
is it any wonder you would fly off the handle?

paste your face on when you hit the street
and pray to any god that it'll hold up through the heat
what the others see from the sidelines shines like a diamond to your eyes

put another finger down
a foot against the ground
a day, a dawn, another good intention going wrong
a rocket launcher down
a fire in the ground
put a finger to the trigger when the sky is falling down

when the sky is falling down

oh poor baby, have you really washed out?
did the panel in your head put the pedal to your doubt?
can you find the footpath under your knees?
can you find the right direction when you're eager to please?

put the gun when you hit the beat
and tell the ammunition that you're playing for defeat
find another way to defy them when you rely on empty fumes

put another finger down
a foot against the ground
a day, a dawn, another good intention going wrong
a rocket launcher down
a fire in the ground
put a finger to the trigger when the sky is falling down

when the sky is falling down
falling down
down...

oh poor baby, are you feeling left out?
did the demons in your heart put the silence in your shout?
now you're the wax left on the sides of the candle
is it any wonder you would fly off the handle?
