If only you knew
What the world had in store for you
Mesmerize all you see
Open up your heart
Open up and let this be
We've come too near, we've strayed too far
The parody that people are
Inventing schemes of yesteryear
Complying out of baseless fear
This minor plot twist wrings my neck
The captain calls you to the deck
A barnacle against the sea
A moonwash flowing down on me
I see (x4)
Where we were
Do you concur?
We've come too near, we've strayed too far
The parody that people are
Inventing schemes of yesteryear
Complying out of baseless fear
This minor plot twist wrings my neck
Have you forgotten
What you said to yourself?
Allow the form to take hold
Don't―why do you question still?
And as the sun goes down
All the light recedes from your college town
Just know that you're not alone
No matter where you call your home
