Holding hands with you and him
Playing elephant chains
Now I wring my hands in shame
At the thought of the game
When your family fades
Then your friends will stay near
Drinking beer with you and her
Playing tell truth or dare
When the bell rings grab your coat
This one's going as well
When your family fades
Then your friends will stay near
When your friends disappear
Your job becomes your career
A thousand words an hour goes in
Smiling into the glare
Little bones begin to groan
Seize the joints in mid-air
When your family fades
Then your friends will stay near
When your friends disappear
Your job becomes your career
When your job is a strain
You get out of your brain
Soaring on an eagle ride
Colours mounting in waves
Paranoia by your side
As you crumble away
When your family fades
Then your friends will stay near
When your friends disappear
Your job becomes your career
When your job is a strain
You get out of your brain
When your brain starts to blow
Is there nowhere to go
