Lyrics:

What a thing to admit
That when someone looks at me
With real love
I don't like it very much

It kinda makes me feel like
I'm being crushed
Is this something
That you would like to discuss?

And it's good to be alive
Crying into cereal at midnight
If they ever let me out
I'm gonna really let it out

I listen to music from 2006
And feel kind of sick
But oh God, you’re gonna get it
You'll be sorry that you messed with me

Remember being in that basement
With Tom Vek?
Everyone treated us like little pets
Oh, tell me it's not over yet

And in my darkest fantasies
I am the picture of passivity
Waiting for you to side of stage
Suppressing all my private rage

But as my sister said
I'd probably last six days

Oh, it's good to be alive
Crying into cereal at midnight
If they ever let me out
I'm gonna really let it out

When I decided to wage Holy War
It looked very much like staring at my bedroom floor
But oh God, you’re gonna get it
You'll be sorry that you messed with me

And I know I may not look like much
Just another screaming speck of dust
But oh, God, you’re gonna get it
You'll be sorry that you messed with us

But it’s so good to be alive
Crying into cereal at midnight
But oh, God, you’re gonna get it
You'll be sorry that you messed with us
