You can't [bad word] that sign
You're sleepin' in all the time
You'll see me on the screen
Through all the other soul's dark walls
With a sword
The mad circus says goodnight

The tape machine exposed
From all its spinnin' round and round
I've scratched all my reels
I've bitten all my nails to the bone
Like a stone
 [bad word] back and thrown up

Away from the top
And away from the drills
But kid I'm a pilot
It's all I believe in
It's all I believe in
You can ride on my back

And time on your hands
You spend your mornings down by the tracks
You had the drivers sign your arms
My hospitals will [bad word] you home
Like a tomb
With gun marks achin'

To look on your grace
And believe what you say
But kid I'm a pilot
It's all I believe in
It's all I believe in
You can ride on my back

If I stay in this room
They'll remember me for my youth
If I stay in this room
They'll remember me for my youth

If I give it all up
If I give it all up
If I give it all up

But kid I'm a pilot
It's all I believe in
It's all I believe in
It's all I believe in
You can ride on my back
