lyrics

If we could maybe we would earth ourselves out
There is too much electricity that rushes through us
We have been bound by the walls they built around our feet

And the pressure it builds upon our brains
Causing such a strain they will label us insane
I wish we hadda studied how to survive when everything else dies
'Cause now we're on our own and we don't know anything

So I am gonna wait until I get older
To travel the world and learn some things
To put the skills I've been acquiring into something that is interesting
To understand the universe and how it is that things must work
So I can decrease all the doubts I ever had

I am gonna wait until I get older, I am gonna wait until I get older
I am gonna wait until I get older and probably die before I do anything
The whites of my eyes have turned yellow
My skin has melted to its bones
From standing still for so long
