[00:14.314]You're born with nothin'
[00:15.857]Your cheeks are apple dumplings
[00:17.892]The air, the water
[00:19.442]There's somethin' more you're wantin'
[00:21.238]The milk, the sugar
[00:22.747]Outside you, there's a name, and
[00:24.876]You came with nothin'
[00:26.680]You'll leave here just the same,
[00:27.900]but
[00:28.188][ERIK]Between the dark and the dark is
[00:29.947]The voice you're always hearin'
[00:31.489]Some crazy auctioneer is yellin' at you,
[00:34.151]and
[00:34.820]You walk, you run
[00:36.220]You flee the dark, and see the sun
[00:38.045]And every brick you ever laid will crumble away
[00:41.077]Your mama's dead!

[00:52.874][BANDLEADER & ERIK]
[00:52.973]And so are you, and so are you, woo!
[00:55.330]
[01:09.403][BANDLEADER]Your adolescence
[01:10.944]Was just unopened presents
[01:12.705]You drank the liquor
[01:14.461]That made it all go quicker
[01:15.989]Those dead ancestors
[01:17.788]You had to make an exit
[01:19.319]You went and found a bottle
[01:20.919]And now your face reflects it
[01:23.004][ERIK]And so you fail with failures
[01:24.527]And you confront your rivals
[01:26.030]Who stand there, armed with bibles, pointin' at you,
[01:29.040]and
[01:29.383]You plot, you scheme
[01:30.962]You had a chance, had a dream
[01:32.728]Couldn't get a witness, now you stand here today
[01:35.779]Your mama's dead!

[01:50.575]I've been a pilgrim on the road from coast to coast
[01:53.360]I look around and all I seen was hungry ghosts
[01:57.147]Dead-end and spinnin' on the gravel road to hell
[02:00.668]I know the drill, cause I'm one of them as well
[02:07.769]
[02:21.321][ERIK]Your wild desire
[02:22.851]And all you must acquire
[02:24.677]More love, more money
[02:26.267]But don't you find it funny
[02:28.023][BANDLEADER]
[02:28.024]That still, you're hungry?
[02:29.780]In fact, you're really famished
[02:31.606]The craving and the panic
[02:33.371]Until the day you've vanished
[02:34.874][ERIK]
[02:34.875]You just keep pushing pushers
[02:36.681]You just keep cheating cheaters
[02:38.437]Like those religious leaders tell you to do
[02:40.946][BANDLEADER & ERIK]
[02:40.947]So you kick, you scream
[02:42.979]You hear the graduation theme
[02:44.985]Jehovah calls your name and then she takes you away
