The Teenage Runaways - Pigment lyrics

Catch the train at noon Round trip to my brain and back You'll find my mind exciting, just hope you make it back and do that soon Or else you'll be doomed Cause I've traveled through thousands of times and I still don't know my way around I still haven't even seen every sight or heard every sound Don't get lost in the dark because you'll get eaten alive Another waste of a life You aren't a cat, you don't get nine chances You took your opportunity to thrive for granted One of these days I'll get lost and I'll never be found Since I'm adventerous, there's no way that you'll ever keep me home bound You can keep me under the water, deep down, but I'll hold my breath, I refuse to drown I'll never step down from my position of running my run down playground As long as I'm around, it'll be safe and sound It won't get taken over by strange faces And if they do take me to new and mysterious places Don't you worry, I'll leave traces of my non-faded self on a shelf in a room that's called the closet Where I keep the dust pan and the broom Promise you'll free me no matter what the cost may be And maybe if you follow through when I get back I'll look at you and give you a reward It'll be small since that's all I can afford because I'm poor No ifs ands or buts about it Hate and doubt me all you want In the end I'll be right, When aren't I? Wanna battle? I'll fight to the d**h I'll be like the big bad wolf and with a few huffs and puffs I'll blow you down sh** I must've had bad breath I'll rock and sock you like a robot, soon enough you'll get smart and come around Meet me down town You can take a trip down my alleyway Don't judge me because it's filled with decay I haven't cleaned myself up in awhile It's just another thing that has compiled itself onto my to do list, something that I've persistantly dismissed Everytime I come across the thought, my attention span seems to drift It's incredible how fast I can shift through topics It's like I'm as fast as sonic Someone help me please Use some hypnotics on me before I explode like atomic bombs Am I making you nervous, I noticed your sweaty palms My madness has never ever broken through the surface Like a petty cut, or a short lived burn from the side opposite of the bu*t Of a cigarette Basically I'm only a tiny threat So don't you fret I'm nothing that you'd ever regret for years Don't waste any tears on me Idiotic decisions reflect upon who you are It won't be ironic if it's expected Don't play russian roulette if you don't think you'll die It's proven one hundred percent that you won't survive So if you want too, co*k it back and then let go, if you're still alive then reload I'll laugh when your head explodes It's sad that all of the knowledge you've spent years learning is now scattered all across this blank room You've created point blank artwork What an original piece of art, I like how it starts on the wall and ends on the floor Too bad you couldn't have painted more The room was a bit dull but I'm liking the shades you hid inside your skull The pigment is pretty, although the way you create the splatter technique is sh**ty I'm desperate and confused It seems like I'm always wrongly accused of crimes that I didn't commit I'd only admit my sins if I was under pressure Even if you pester me, I'm much more clever than I'm thought to be Don't you see? I'm not giving into your plea So just shine some lights on me cause I'm about to show you something you've never seen before It's time to settle the score I'm gonna pull out a gun and shoot shells into the crowd Cover your ears, it's about to get loud It's amusing that when someone experiences the first sign of danger they scatter like ants Can't you just take a chance? That's why most romances fail You take off your mask and your partner high tails it out of your sight It's like a bird in flight Are you worried now? You've gone pale Your pigment is as white as a ghost My soul's pigment is like burnt toast Black like coal Sink inside like a black hole Once you're in my life you can't leave So don't even think of pulling any tricks from your sleeve I'm going to theive your freedom You may be beaten down and broken But escape is hopeless You're mine forever You're never leaving my side, you're chained to me I don't care if we live for centuries, I'll never cast you aside If you try leaving you'll crush my pride Hearts collide with the tide and get washed away But trust me we won't be like that, you'll never astray If I have too, I'll put concrete slabs on your feet to weigh you down Don't you dare frown, with me you have to be happy Roll a fatty and inhale
