A little after twelve, the function suite was full
                                  
With people I had never seen before

                                         
Ripped up ticket stubs, confetti'ed on the floor
                                   
It dawned on me I’d seen it all before

                                         
Cool your beans my son, you look a fucking mess
                                   
No one’s getting out of here, tonight

                                            
Hit that button there, the one that just says wrong
                                                  
We’ll lose our lives through all our favorite songs

Bridge:
                           /
Go forward to later you look light on your feet
                                 
When you whirled in the room I was nailed to my seat
                          /
I‘m like a prisoner getting ready to stalk
                                   
I feel the blood in my hands and the threat in your walk

Chorus:
                        /
And suddenly it lifts the roof off the place
                                   
That keeps a fault in my step, and a grin on my face
                          /
It can’t contain me but you needn't on me
                                  
Get me back in my box, and snap the branches off me

                                        
 A little after four, the function suite is dead
                                   
And I am just a ripped up ticket stub 
                                            
Here’s a helping hand, a voice that’s far too close
                                
And I am up and on my broken limbs
