I am clearly broken And no one knows what to do Pieces of the puzzles don't fit so I pound them you Itching is a pulse inside Creeping out to come alive It's just doing what it's gonna do Times are looking grim these days Holding on to everything It's hard to draw the line Shut the f*ck up, get up Shut the f*ck up, get up Shut the f*ck up, get up I can't wait to rip my eyes out and look at you Peace through pain is precious Especially when it's done by you Itching is a pulse inside Creeping out to come alive It's just doing what it's gonna do Times are looking grim these days Holding on to everything It's hard to draw the line And I, I'm hiding in this empty space Tortured by my memories Of what I left behind Shut the f*ck up, get up Shut the f*ck up, get up Shut the f*ck up, get up Shut Up Times are looking grim these days Holding on to everything It's hard to draw the line And I, I'm hiding in this empty space Tortured by my memories Of what I left behind Shut the f*ck up, get up Shut the f*ck up, get up Shut the f*ck up, get up
