tear down the bearing wall
  put up a picture window
  something to look through
  at the bastard colors
  burnt sienna
    put down the wrecking ball
  who has a friend, who needs one?
  i've got a way to get to work in almost any city
  doesn't matter where
  take a needle, i won't be there
  privileges forsaken there
  liberties i've taken take me nowhere
    put down the wrecking ball
  don't let a childhood linger
  they'll take the world apart and break my baby brother's finger
  so he can't shake my hand
  guard the dead against my legacy
  and lack the wound no more
    run from nowhere, nowhere follows you
    burn down the house
  make sure the family is inside
  nothing more to tether you
  also no one there to catch you crying
    nothing but my famous pillow
  and my father's rocking chair
  (get a sliver when you sit there)
  every mess i make i make a run from nowhere
  nowhere follows you
