lyrics

i walk on this island
i feel nothing
nothing between us
i rarely do

who likes the dissection
a fly in a bottle
sitting wingless
and asked to smile

but i saw it coming like a drink on a plane
rolling up towards me so slowly up the lane
they say good punching bag never gets out of the way
so why don’t you hit it straight

a lasting impression
from constant pressure
formed to transgress
the past’s crimes

you're like a magician
folding time
a couple of words
and i’m back in detention

but i saw it coming like a drink on a plane
rolling towards me so slowly up the lane
they say good punching bag never gets out of the way
so why don’t you hit it straight

sometimes i wonder if you and I we're not the same
after all we both have them to blame
found our different ways to process all the pain
just don’t want you to become the thing you hate

but i saw it coming like a drink on a plane
rolling up towards me so slowly up the lane
they say a good punching bag never gets out of the way
so why don't ya
so why don't ya
so why don't ya
so why don't ya hit it straight
