Do you feel the way you hate Do you hate the way you feel Always closest to the flame Ever closer to the blade I am poison crazy lush Built these hands to lift me up We are servants of our formulaic ways I'm screaming daisies From fourteen miles away I've got my own time Got it all today Make up your mind I need some help To find this mind Limbo this and limbo that You were this and you were that Ever know that what you fear is what you find This Indian summer I signed my life away There's a greedy fly in here And I fly away Make up your mind I need some help To find this mind Make up your mind I need some help To find this mind mind mind mind Make up your mind I need some help To find this mind mind mind mind
