Oh what am I waiting for?
spell to be cast or for it to be broken
At the very last!
Some white ghost from my [bad word] to split me wide open, oh

If I bandage my eyes, will you press in my hand a small simple token?
I was born deaf or else you've never spoken

I thought it was safe for me and my own,
I began hearing these voices in the dial tone
And [bad word] to me now, though I dismembered my phone

They said you want to hear something that you already know,
If [bad word] from above, well, this [bad word] from below.
It says, "You are sleeping together, but you will die alone."

I thought it was safe but the seed had been sown,
As a child I aspired to be a super hero.
Now I live with the corpses of the lives I let go,
Oh I know you all know how these things start to show.

I've been trying to make myself better,
So I can fare the fare foul weather.
I write a song like a prison letter.
I write a song maybe to make me feel better,
It won't break free my fetters.

oooooooooOOOOOOO-OOOHHHHHH!!!

I know what came after, but what happened before?
I began making memories at the age of four.
Well I learned to use words,
I got jealous and bored
Soon I'll be passing out cold on the kitchen floor
Soon I'll be passing out cold on the kitchen floor.

Singing,
When am I gonna feel better?
I said when am I gonna feel better?
I said when am I gonna feel better?
I have been patient for a long time now.

I've been the patient for a long time now
I've been the patient for a long time now
I've been the patient for a long time now
And I will never be a younger man now

1! 2! 1, 2, 3! 4, 5, 6!

Oh what am I waiting for?
spell to be cast or for it to be broken!
At the very last!
Some white ghost from my [bad word] to split me wide open, oh!

If I hold out my hand
There's nothing at all!
And nothing's a token!

I will be good though my body be broken
(I will be good though my body be broken)
I will be good though my body be broken
(I will be good though my body be broken)
I will be good though my body be broken, oh-oh-ohhh
(I will be good though my body be broken)
I will be good though my body be broken, oh-oh! oh-oh! OH!
(I will be good though my body be broken)
I will be good though my body be broken! oh-oh-ohhh
(I will be good though my body be broken)
I will be good though my body be broken! oh-oh-oohh!
(I will be good though my body be broken)
I will be good though my body be broken! oh-oh-oohhh
(I will be good though my body be broken)

I will be good, may I want for nothing at all.
