[Intro]
Be prepared
You will die
Be prepared (You were murdered in cold blood)
You will die (You were murdered in cold blood)
[Verse 1]
Before we watched the turtle die
We all had an idea of how our lives were going to be
We are just weathermen predicting storms
And reading from our cue lines on the back of our hands
[Pre-Chorus]
Waiting and wondering if it's an umbrella kind of day
I sure hope it is the kind of day you want to wake up
And forgot all of your pain
And the person who took it away
[Chorus]
Even when the words escape your brain
You can picture it
I can see it all over your face
You were just a kid
Tell me where you hide all of your pain
Inside your mother's arms?
They won't believe a word you say
They let him go with no charge (x2)
[Verse 2]
There were two brothers
That had the world
In front of their eyes
Visitation rights and politics
Airport terminals on our Friday nights
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Refrain]
If I am a**embling a puzzle
All that matters are
The pieces in front of me. in front of me (x2)
[Verse 3]
I don't care how it got there
Let's start with the corners and work our way in
We find ourselves forcing pieces
And getting in our own way with wondering how
How it all began
[Chorus]
[Refrain]
[Bridge]
I don't care how it got there
Let's start with the corners and work our way in
We find ourselves forcing pieces
And getting in our own way with wondering how, how it all began
[Chorus]
[Refrain]
[Bridge]
[Verse 4](x2)
Father, you will burn
Your reign will overturn
Your pills will go unfilled
Your ba*tard son (x2)
[Verse 5]
You said I was too hyper to come see you when your time was up. Eating through a bag on the side of your body,
While the cancer takes your life and slowly eats at your insides. Skinny, like the time you had for me
You never wanted a family (x2)
There were was no note left
No presents under our tree
You are just like me (x3)
You let the fog in (x3)
[Verse 4](x3)
