lyrics

Opened my head to find it full of rust and slime. I Reached inside my chest for my heart. I felt inside and cried with nothing there to find
Sun shines now, it seems so cruel
behind myself I am standing, behold all of my nothing I know everyone must succumb, staring at the back of my head
children sing happy things: songs of ignorance, plastic toys, balloons and ponies!
when I was young I had a plastic cow sweat and blood glistened brow I kept it in the sun for a year exposed to the ultraviolet clear the paint faded the plastic cracked
just like my senses are taxed
looking under my bed I see all my own secrets lots of dirty old socks even if I want to I can't sleep now clowns will eat me
sun shines now, it seems so cruel
I've done all these things before under the rug and on the shelf opened and closed all the doors I dug through your trash to learn a little more
children sing happy things: lollipops, celery baseball caps, bits of string, and chewing gum!
now I'm older I am the cow you are the sun, everything is one yesterday's tommorrow never is enough, thicker skin grows the more life is tough thank some unnamed nothing for your loss memories forgotten and ugliness cost
sun shines now, it seems so cruel
sun shines now, it seems so cool.
