This is why you don’t feed the animals That live inside my head This is why you don’t encourage me Mingling with the dead
I won’t remove guards from my wall I won’t shed my outer shell and expose my heart I’ll die long before you get to me
Dark and dismal was my song But I will never again sing along I swear I’ve been cowardly for quite some time Now this melancholy boy is gonna shine Let’s go arrows out I’m gonna go, let’s go arrows out
When it gets dark sometimes my heart Leads me into the woods There I drink a sinister mead That drives away the good
I won’t remove guards from my wall I won’t shed my outer shell and expose my heart I’ll die long before you get to me
Dark and dismal was my song But I will never again sing along I swear I’ve been cowardly for quite some time Now this melancholy boy is gonna shine Let’s go arrows out I’m gonna go, let’s go arrows out
