lyrics

waiting around for some infernal demon coming through the door
with a pinstripe suit and his infernal insults wearing thin yr mind

standing on the hillside it's like,
it's touch and go now
thought it wouldn't end up like that,
no it's touch and go now

standing in the light of inside
noting the parts of you that died
crestfallen in shallow seas
hyperventilate displease

I won't be trained to be poured in open water!
I won't be trained to be poured right down the drain!
evil thrown away will seep right through the plastic,
so I'll ball it up and throw it right out my window-wwhooop!
