lyrics

Gonna live in the dark, gonna find me a cave
wherein I can be quiet and feel real brave
I don't wanna be here, make me somebody else
so I'm not disappointed in myself
gonna live in the dark, gonna find me a heart
one that I can devour, and feel real smart

I'm picking up sticks to start a fire
keep giving me drugs so I get higher
my need to fuck up burns like a flame
I'm taking over your ivory tower

I will quietly slip into a life of crime
just sit back and shut up, this is my dime
I still wish you were here, you were something else
i hope that you weren't at war within yourself
gonna live in the dark, gonna find me a cave
wherein someday I'll go fucking insane

I'm picking up sticks to start a fire....
