to live & die in columbus, ohio

Setting up the dominoes How I love to watch the fall Well that's how the story goes Not a fight that's hard to call Stealing pieces of the rainbow Won't get you very far at all Too cold-blooded for this rodeo Can you feed me the fireball I'm searching for my very soul At the bottom of this toilet bowl If it means, complete control Fly me from the top of this flagpole Really wondering, what's the end goal Bureaucratic, thought patrol There was more smoke on the grassy knoll Than yo hablo español Let the sadness boil over Hear the steam pour out your ears Getting hotter, can't take much longer Getting louder, still no one here's I don't blame them, I'm just a stranger Whining about my wasted years If you're listening, you hear me now All I ask for, is that you cheer I beat this stutter, into my mouth I beat it in but I can't beat it out Shut the shutters, close the blinds I am slowly losing my mind Push the boulder, climb up the hill Or feel the crushing weight of standing still Rest my shoulders, in the trebuchet Cannon fodder for flower bouquets Feeling lost, in the sea Trapped in abandoned submarines Why's it mean so much to me When I die how I'll be seen It hurts, it gets hard to breathe I felt the same way at seventeen Murmur passion, breathless too Leave me nameless, a plate of food Talking backwards, what do you do Play the court jester, play the fool Naked language, in the sky Take me somewhere, nobody knows What a waste, to live and die In Columbus, Ohio
