Because I didn’t leave the house to stand like a pole
they’re not chasing me and I’m not looking for a hiding spot
in this city they don’t dance by convention
I won’t sit and wait for another century
I didn’t leave the house to sit like a flower pot
I came and left the angst on a hanger
hey, soldiers come down from the castles
cause the roof’s tearing down and the stars are below
Your whole life you thought everyone around you always wants the worst for you
you weren’t easy going, you put on a mask and closed yourself off
and now all the beauty you had in you dies, spoils, ruins,
open your eyes a bit, surrounding you is a world that loves you
