"Coraline" lyrics

"Coraline"

I'm looking for a trap door
Some escape or passport
I wish they taught a crash course on cognitive strength
My thoughts are like the chatter of the rain they pitter patter
Now I'm searching for a ladder to climb out of this hole
The void is not deep it's just empty
My inspiration crashed it smashed in to a levy
I tried to dig it out as I slouch around this house
I could do some big things if I let go of the doubts

Coraline the world keeps messing with my mind
And I feel blind underneath these button eyes

I'm tired of always forcing my life to work
I feel like I'm a gardener who hates the earth
My father got stung by wasps in the face
Just to teach me a lesson on how to be brave
And mother knows best but that's hard to attest
When she sews my mouth up cause she thinks I'm upset
I must learn my lesson to stop the progression of this pent up aggression it's my latest obsession

Coraline the world keeps messing with my mind
And I feel blind underneath these button eyes

Everywhere I go people seem so cold
Tell me how I am to know
If someone is a friend or foe
