Lyrics

Troubling it was troubling when the dots failed to connect Scrambling she was scrambling to put that train back on the track The conductor went rogue rogue rogue rogue and until it slowed slowed slowed slowed She couldn't turn it back Speeding she was speeding from land straight into the sea The warnings the warnings all could hear except for she she wanted to dive dive dive dive She felt alive alive alive She had been hijacked she thought she was a siren she wanted to get to sea but not with a sailor he thought he was King Solomon He wanted to tame the kitten but she was a biter Cackling, he was cackling as he planned out her demise Trembling she was trembling when she saw the faded tear beneath his eyes He wanted to take. take. take. take. but she didn't break break break break Not a single crack The snakes in the water they wrapped all around her and they pulled her down. pulled her down. the straps on the bed where she thrashed her head had her tightly bound, tightly bound. the rooster was given scripture, the demon got a kiss on the cheek She said mister, can we go faster? I'm been in this cell for nearly a week. Struggling she was struggling to get out of her latest bind Juggling she was juggling too many unfit states of mind And though it took her time time time time She got back to baseline baseline Her train is stabilized she thought she was a siren she wanted to get to sea but not with a sailor he thought he was King Solomon He wanted to tame the kitten but she was a biter The snakes in the water they wrapped all around her and they pulled her down. pulled her down. the straps on the bed where she thrashed her head had her tightly bound, tightly bound. the rooster was given scripture, the demon got a kiss on the cheek She said mister, can we go faster? I'm been in this cell for nearly a week.
