lyrics

What does it mean
Tell me what does it mean
To live free anyways
When you're stuck in this body
When you're stuck in this house
Or stuck in your ways
A bird in a cage stuck with it's prey
Making the same mistakes but that's okay
'Cause you could change you hair and change you life
You could change your mouth your nose you eyes your skin
You could change into a 20 year old dead beat
Drop acid in a warehouse somewhere and abandon your kid
But I heard it said though they never told
You see it in their eyes and you know it's true
How we could stand here in the same painted room
But our eyes would be different hues

I meant to tell you
I thought that I told you
That heaven is a boardroom
It's a place on earth between saved and withdrawn
With immaculate reception
And you can tell me again how you preferred sensitive men
But how you could make an exception
And how pagans and virgins and whores
Were down on the floor on all fours
Eyes glazed over in genuflection
But what if you're just too fucked up to ascend
And what if your halo is bent so far that it touches your head
And sharpens the edge
And what if the word on high was passed down
Written on stone and crossed out in pen

But I heard it said but I didn't hear
Sorry kid I just can't forget
You can't wash these sins
When they're caked on so thick
If you did they'rd be nothing left
