The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I try to stay on top of you

To hold your body down

Your shaking seems to hinder

Every grap that I have found

Moving every inch around me

To defuse your private bomb

I stretch myself surrounding

And protecting you from harm

I use a wallet for your mouth

So when you bite you will not bleed

I drilled a wire through my cheek

And let it down and out my sleeve

And as your pulling out the best of me

Yeah which never ever comes

This wires all thats left of me

And its hooked within my gums

within my gums...

So drill it, so drill it

So hard

Feel it

[Kirk screaming]

So drill it, so drill it

So hard

Feel it

[Kirk screaming]

Its proof to show that I bleed for this

And ive cut myself the shame

But to get to know this macicist

Who has stolen my first name

Pretending he's a teacher

Holding all my weight at ease

Yet the teacher seems to split in two

Destroying both his knees

Now crawling I position myself

Below your broken wing

I lift your featherd left arm

Where you hide your heart for me

I never noticed it was swolen

With the touch of brutal pain

I never knew a heart could live inside

The rust from all your rain

all your rain...

So drill it, so drill it

so hard

feel it

[Kirk screaming]

So drill it, so drill it

so hard

feel it

[Kirk screaming]

I didnt think to bring a wash cloth

And rub away the dirt

Myself and I we share

This barely beating heart of hurt

And when the hurt comes theres an argument,

A fight to save a smile

A small attack on human tears

To dry them for a while

A dream we all should count on ;

Yeah a vision i believe

Where confidence is found

Attached to wires on our sleeve

Where lonelyness is history

Told to pack your shit and leave

Where guidance is a fortune

Told to help in time of need

And were crying emits secrets

Its the art of how we greiv

And lessons are the key

To every goal I will acheive

I will achieve

So drill it, so drill it

So hard

Feel it

[Kirk screaming]

So drill it, so drill it

So hard

Feel it

[Kirk screaming]

So drill it, so drill it

so hard

feel it

[Kirk screaming]

So drill it, so drill it

so hard

feel it

[Kirk sreaming]
