"Ball And Chain" lyrics

Rebuild my body, start it from scratch
Again with my brain and my bones, all detached
Put me in a jar and draw on a face
Nothing is ever simple, I just live that way
Broke all the mirrors, tore down the frames
There's glass on the floor, I think it hit my brain
Shut down the system, pull all the plugs
The universe said that I would be someone

Don't speak, this happens all the time
There's something kinda ugly taking up my mind
Don't leave, I promise, I'll be fine

Everybody's grabbing for the apple
Thinking if they have it, they'll be God's new fave
Everybody's praying for their shackles
Casually bedazzling the ball and chain

Stuck in my head
Blood from my nose
Down on my knees
Hung by my toes

Darling, at night, I dream of the end
I wake up and find, I'm alone in my bed
Cover the stitches with glitter and glue
The older I get, the more I hate the truth

Don't speak, this happens all the time
There's something kinda ugly taking up my mind
Don't leave, I promise, I'll be fine

Everybody's grabbing for the apple
Thinking if they have it, they'll be God's new fave
Everybody's praying for their shackles
Casually bedazzling the ball and chain

Stuck in my head
Blood from my nose
Down on my knees
Hung by my toes
Head
Nose
Knees
Toes

I feel my mortality, like, I'm staring down a gun
But I've got my finger on the trigger
And the world is screaming at me, "Run"
I feel the end of the universe, it's in my head all the time
It surrounds me, it's in me
I think the universe is mine

Everybody's grabbing for the apple
Thinking if they have it, they'll be God's new fave
Everybody's praying for their shackles
Casually bedazzling the ball and chain
