There's something really wrong this time
If I can only hold the line
Then I can put it back the way it's meant to be (the way it's meant to be)
It's moving really fast and fine
And every little inch is mine
There's something in the way it always seems to be
All about you

So I sold my message to
The broken part of you
I should have known I crossed the line
When it feels like something new
Taking part of you
The pressure's grown, I tripped a mine

Following the old guidelines
And leave my old common sense behind
There's gotta be a way that we can all agree (that we can all agree)
The flesh is soaking in the brine
The atrophy is undefined
It's funny just the way it always seems to be
All about you

So I sold my message to
The broken part of you
I should have known I crossed the line
When it feels like something new
Taking part of you
The pressure's grown, I tripped a mine

Well I'm a slave to the wind and the water
I can't relate to the birds and the bees
Well I will live in the mind of the daughter
And now I hate how my mind is perceived
