0PTiMYSTIC! - Casket Case lyrics

[Hook] Scatter my cares away Launching a hand grenade And when it blows Promise me that you won't dance afraid Make an advance, it may Try to protect the face (it) Gets wasted sometimes I'm a casket case I mean a basket case Guess I'm a casket case [Verse 1] I'd love to bask in grace Instead I'm fighting Grayskull Thought the battle'd only last a day I underestimated Can't always be the favorite The universe had other plans Shocked into sufferin' Thought I was tough, but ran 'Til we met face to face again There was no avoiding it And there is no destroying it Or anything, for that matter Why does this stuff matter? Whether it is tough matter? Or something like fluffed batter? We like how it feels Reminds us what's real We need fear in a world Filled with crocodile tears Let them all fall Down Bringing faith to mountains It can be astoundin' Now in tears, we're drownin' Yum Insane taste we need Feeling weak for a week Without even the need to bleed Breathe! [Hook] Scatter my cares away Launching a hand grenade And when it blows Promise me that (now let's sweat!) you won't dance afraid Make an advance, it may Try to protect the face (it) Gets wasted sometimes I'm a casket case I mean a basket case Guess I'm a casket case [Verse 2] Everyone's favorite therapist I'm getting scared of this Never one to be arrogant So I show care to them, but Sometimes it feels like I'm neglecting myself Battling similar demons I've had since I was twelve I tell them go to Hell The demons, that is But what if I am one? And those f**ers are my kin? These thoughts Make me dive into the astral realm To see what I can pull out To put me back at the helm of my life Because nobody likes To feel out of control So I'm grabbing the wheel and Steering into clearer skies Tired of the surprises I am the pilot, but Will make compromises When I see fit Divine genius Look how I lift myself up To keep my ego lit Guess it is what it is I am aware of this sh** Now watch me whip it And do my dance toward enlightenment [Hook] Scatter my cares away Launching a hand grenade And when it blows Promise me that you won't dance afraid Make an advance, it may Try to protect the face (it) Gets wasted sometimes I'm a casket case I mean a basket case What does it matter, eh?
