The Zoo
Good Morning Bedlam
GENRE My heart is skipping like a stone over silent waters
Each time I try to pull you close I seem to push you farther
Screaming can you hear me, but no sound escapes my mouth
Four walls they’re made of glass, I can’t escape but I can look through
Too slow to realize I’m not the human I am the zoo
Come one, come all
And you’ll find at the back of my mind
Is a voice saying son if they love you they’re blind
If you stay in your cage and let nobody through
You’ll never feel pain, you’ll have no one to lose
We’ll live out each day in our box of perfection
The numbness will keep you from feeling rejection
Oh I am all that there is
I am the cut, and I am the kiss
Darling girl I swear it’s true
I try to keep my vows to you
But selflessness has never been my virtue
You paid your dues we’ve had our laughs
If you said that you take it back
I swear I’d never think to blame you
The scars across my side don’t show
It’s love I want it’s pride I know
The more I learn the less I seem to grow
Oh… I see you
Can’t seem to say it but I hope you know I need you
Lie die die
When you come back home you know I’ll greet you
I hope you know I’ll always reach you
My mind is skipping like a stone over silent waters
Each time I try to pull you close I seem to push you farther
Screaming can you hear me, but no sound escapes my mouth
Each time I try to pull you close I seem to push you farther
Screaming can you hear me, but no sound escapes my mouth
Four walls they’re made of glass, I can’t escape but I can look through
Too slow to realize I’m not the human I am the zoo
Come one, come all
And you’ll find at the back of my mind
Is a voice saying son if they love you they’re blind
If you stay in your cage and let nobody through
You’ll never feel pain, you’ll have no one to lose
We’ll live out each day in our box of perfection
The numbness will keep you from feeling rejection
Oh I am all that there is
I am the cut, and I am the kiss
Darling girl I swear it’s true
I try to keep my vows to you
But selflessness has never been my virtue
You paid your dues we’ve had our laughs
If you said that you take it back
I swear I’d never think to blame you
The scars across my side don’t show
It’s love I want it’s pride I know
The more I learn the less I seem to grow
Oh… I see you
Can’t seem to say it but I hope you know I need you
Lie die die
When you come back home you know I’ll greet you
I hope you know I’ll always reach you
My mind is skipping like a stone over silent waters
Each time I try to pull you close I seem to push you farther
Screaming can you hear me, but no sound escapes my mouth
