"Estrangement Zone" lyrics

"Estrangement Zone"

Oh world
It's me that you want, I'm ready for it
Please don't take the boy
Woke up
Just as the virgin sunlight kissed the edges of the void
All manner of men at the waypoint bar
Wondering exactly when, if ever, you'll remember who they are
For a long time
I wished I was in their number
Now I'm ready to withdraw
Past the hometown hills, the congregational doom
Gated grocery stores by gamma mold overgrown
Breathe for me
I'm breaching the estrangement zone

So young
Stumbling, a pimply virgin
From an un-infested state
How come
Someone as soft as me should have to set the bent world straight?
Belladona seizes across the freezing path
You've got to hang on to your reason
It's the season of the aftermath
Northbound
Straight to the source of sickness
Well, I hope it's not too late
I can hear your voice come back distorted by phone
Your static silhouette, set standing alone
Will you take this call from the estrangement zone?

The king, he sickeningly slides from his throne
The anchor's sobbing in the studio alone
"I think it's expanding, the estrangement zone."
