He wears his heart
safety pinned to his backpack
His backpack is all that he knows

Shot down by strangers
whose glances can cripple
the heart and devour the soul


All alone he turns to stone
while holding his breath half to death

Terrified of whats inside
to save his life he crawls
like a worm from a bird

crawls like a worm from a bird

Out of his mind away

pushes him whispering
must have been out of his mind
mid-day delusions of pushing this out of his head

maybe out of his mind

All alone he turns to stone

while holding his breath half to death
Terrified of whats inside
to save his life he

crawls like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm from a bird


All he knows
If he can't relieve it it grows
and so it goes

he crawls like a worm
crawls like a worm from the bird


Out of his mind away
pushes him whispering
must have been out of his mind


All alone he turns to stone
while holding his breath half to death

Terrified of whats inside
to save his life he crawls
like a worm from a bird

crawls like a worm from a bird

All alone

he's holding his breath half to death
Terrified to save his life
he crawls like a worm

Crawls like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm from a bird

crawls like a worm
crawls like a worm
crawls like a worm from a bird
