Baby make the lights stop flickering.
There's an ice storm running through the town,
ripping up the streets
and cracking the pavement at my feet.
All I wanna do is go home.
The world is in a state of collapse
and I can't seem to make it make sense.
It's chilling me. And I can see very clearly
it's killing you.

If this is the buzz you were looking forward to complaining about,
well now you've got your chance.
You can find out what people are really like
every other time you're not around.
I've told you you're a hundred times wrong
but it hasn't stopped you from wanting to rearrange your smile
into something other than a meaningless grin.
This town's not big enough for you.

Peace by piece
you try but fail to obtain.
Your house within your body is starting to crumble,
and I can't watch you watching it blow away.
I've been frozen out but never left so cold.
There's so much more of you now
to make me feel alone.
