Got the feelin’ he’s sad inside
The disconnection has multiplied
Five years she’s gone but the sun still shown on his lonely arms and his face hung low
Buzzin’ high with the worthless flies
Singin’ songs in his head and asking why
If he was wanted at all
He didn’t want it
Like an ungrateful thief unknown to his riches
Still free
But he don’t know what to do with it
Don’t know what it means
What good is it for
What could he believe
He'd given himself away on every occasion
On advice and the promise of sages
But they all just spoke to the dead
He didn’t want it
He didn’t want it now
He didn’t want it
No, no, no, no
Falling stars light up the desert sky
..was empty as he felt inside
Do the old gods even blink their eyes
On the alter of his sacrifice would the gods listen and be satisfied
Or were they all just worthless as the buzzing flies in his head
no, he didn’t want it
He didn’t want it
No, he didn’t want it
no, no, no, no
But here we are showing our best
Do we kill or do we protect
Do we remove or do we connect
Do we fall out or do we respect
Do we wake up or stay in our beds
Are we alive or is this a test
To color our souls or cover our bets now
He didn’t want it now
He didn’t want it
No
He didn’t want it
No, no, no, no
