Days into years
And your life disappears
Better thread it tightly
Better tread it lightly

Gone are the times
You could do no crimes
Better grow up quickly
Better get more tricky

Better learn how to strangle your soul
'Fore you lose every ounce of control

Scream and you shout
And you drown in your doubt
Better get your bearings
'Cause there's no one caring

Armed to the teeth
Everybody you meet
Keep your paranoia
Or they'll all destroy ya

When it finally gets to your heart
It'll blow all the chambers apart

So scream out mayday
Could someone save me?
Could someone show me the way
I can get back home
But don't let go
You're not alone
You'll make it through

Thicken your skin
Careful who you let in
'Cause their sticks and stones
Will still break your bones

Days into years
And your life disappears
There's no shame in dying
If you do it smiling

Mayday
Could someone save me?
Could someone show me the way
I can get back home
But don't let go
You're not alone
You'll make it through
