"Little Boy"

I'm the one who gets to break the fairy tale
just knock the house down and take out every nail
there's a break down happening a fire and a reckoning
inevitable wreckingball the mechanism beckoning
the sky's alive and so i am inside
there's no way to reckognize the way it is tonight
I'm sick of it and i'm breaking up all the thoughts i have incurred
all of the little pieces of the illusion that i heard
i realize that you might get dissapointed

Make it stop
little boy
do you not hear me now
you will learn this lesson when you're older
when it's not what you thought
and you pray, dear god
I did not know hell was getting colder
now

I look up to the sky and listen for the flies
and contemplate a happy life when you are so inclined
nobody's having a better time when somebody's telling a lie
sometimes
so ask me why
I can't believe in a single word that's said in the news today
the preachers preach and seem to think
that nobody has to fall or sink
or drink the drink that makes you think
of all of the things that make you wonder

I know the pieces fit so clearly sometimes
and I
I just about got blinded
with a swing in my step and a noose around my neck
i'm surprised
cause i don't mind it
