"What the fuck are y'all doing is the question this is the question"
The animals break out their cages now
Chaos is raining down around us
But here we stand with our arms folded
Do you wanna be free of this
When panic rises like the ocean we
Just keep on flicking through the stages cause
If we don't post it does it happen
Oh I wanna be free of this
Have you and I been sleepwalking way too long
Won't someone pour ice water on me
It only matters if we care now
If you're way beyond that
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders
And I remember when we cared now
If you're way beyond that
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders my shoulders
Movies and news on television
Sometimes it's hard to tell the differences oh
When real life's more fucked up than fiction
Do you wanna be free of this
Have you and I been sleepwalking way too long
Won't someone pour ice water on me
It only matters if we care now
If you're way beyond that
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders
And I remember when we cared now
If you're way beyond that
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders
I don't wanna play dumb anymore
I just wanna feel something like before
I don't wanna feel numb anymore
I just wanna something like before
It only matters if we care now
If you're way beyond that
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders
And I remember when we cared now
If you're way beyond that
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders my shoulders
"Television viewers have the choice of the tragedy play out
From the seating and comfort of their living rooms
But victims have to respond to the pressure of the media while still in shock"
If you're way beyond that
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders my shoulders
