Pardon Me

Pardon me while i burst

A decade ago

I never thought I would be

At twenty three

On the verge of spontaneous combustion

Woe-is-me

But I guess that it comes With the territory

An ominous landscape of never ending calamity

I need you to hear

I need you to see

That I have had all I can take

And exploding seems like

A definite possibility to me

So pardon me while I burst into flames

I've had enough of the world

And it's people's mindless games

So pardon me while I burn

And rise above the flame

Pardon me, pardon me

I'll never be the same

Not two days ago

I was having a look

In a book and I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees

I said, "I can relate,"

Cause' lately I've been thinking of combustication as a welcomed vacation from

The burdens of the planet earth

Like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of being in 3-D
