[00:14.03]You want to go out Friday
[00:16.63]And you want to go forever
[00:20.81]You know that it sounds childish
[00:23.71]That you've dreamt of alligators
[00:27.96]You hope that we are with you
[00:30.76]And you hope you're recognized
[00:34.97]You want to go forever
[00:38.34]You see it in my eyes
[00:41.95]I'm lost in the confusion
[00:44.87]And it doesn't seem to matter
[00:48.88]You really can't believe it
[00:51.72]And you hope it's getting better
[00:55.88]You want to trust the doctors
[00:58.73]Their procedure is the best
[01:02.24]But the last try was a failure
[01:05.75]And the intern was a mess
[01:09.56]And they did the same to Matthew
[01:12.68]And he bled 'til Sunday night
[01:16.93]They're saying don't be frightened
[01:19.770004]But you're weakened by the sight of it
[01:23.79]You lock into a pattern
[01:26.7]And you know that it's the last ditch
[01:30.770004]You're trying to see through it
[01:33.67]And it doesn't make sense
[01:37.47]But they're saying don't be frightened
[01:40.770004]And they're killing alligators
[01:44.35]And they're hog-tied and accepting of
[01:48.09]The struggle
[01:51.97]You want to trust religion
[01:54.64]And you know it's allegory
[01:58.229996]But the people who are followers
[02:02.2]Have written their own story
[02:05.22]So you look up to the heavens
[02:08.62]And you hope that it's a spaceship
[02:12.17]And it's something from your childhood
[02:16.25]You're thinking don't be frightened
[02:19.92]You want to climb the ladder
[02:23.41]You want to see forever
[02:26.89]You want to go out Friday
[02:29.72]And you want to go forever
[02:33.29001]And you want to 'cross your DNA
[02:37.37]To 'cross your DNA with something reptile
[02:47.52]And you're questioning the sciences
[02:50.82]And questioning religion
[02:54.95999]You're looking like an idiot
[02:58.43]And you no longer care
[03:01.55]And you want bridge the schizm
[03:05.38]A built-in mechanism to protect you
[03:15.46]And you're looking for salvation
[03:18.65]And you're looking for deliverance
[03:22.6]You're looking like an idiot
[03:26.43]And you no longer care
[03:29.61]'Cause you want to climb the ladder
[03:33.53]You want to go forever
[03:36.22]And you want to go out Friday
[03:40.43]You want to go forever
