PIN‐EYE

Two, three, four

Gone blind, got a pin in my eye
Six stories of how it got there
Tried ice, now I'm sick of the night
Yeah, these stars got me feeling nauseous

What the hell are you looking at
Thinking that you're so much better than me?
Keep staring, no, I swear, I dare ya'
Just might give you something to see
Baby I was born an Effigy

Oh, why do I beg my legs to take me
Much farther than they were meant to?
I want too much, I never listen
When my body says it's had enough

Good enough might be good enough for those other kids
Don't you stomach it
Put your excuses and your knots inside a million dollar box
When you come to, you'll see it's more than worth the
Years you think you lost, oh!

And there's pins in my nerves
One more for each time I try to outdo
Like my job's to astound you
I guess I've got to deliver
(Fall to pieces, look for reasons, pray to Jesus)
I wish I could just go back in time to tell you I need help

Oh, why do I beg my legs to take me
Much farther than they were meant to?
I plead in vain, these bleeding hands might reach for you

Oh, why do I beg my legs to take me
Much farther than they were meant to?
I want too much, I never listen
When my body tell it's had enough

You don't have to pray for strength again, my friend
I cry much more these days for you
'Cause how the hell could a kid even know to?
Godspeed, it will all catch up to you

Oh, why do I beg my legs to take me
Much farther than they were meant to?
I plead in vain, these bleeding hands might reach for you

Oh, why do I beg my legs to take me
Much farther than they were meant to?
I want too much, I never listen
My body says it's had enough

(Oh, why do I beg my legs to take me) my legs to take me
(Much farther than they were meant to?) They were meant to
I want, I want, I want, I want it all (in your eyes)

Oh, why do I beg my legs to take me
Much farther than they were meant to?
I want too much, I never listen
When my body says it's had enough
