Lyrics:
verse1
 
It¥s all in your mind, she said the darkness and the light
the clock it bleeds for you,but you never got the time in right
i woke you up and i slit the throat of your confidence
and we laughed in the night, and i felt all right.
 
verse2
 
All hands on deck boys ¥cause this ship was made to sink
your swabber salutes younow, but i know what he¥s thinking
i woke you up and i slit the throat of your confidence
and we laughed in the night, and it felt all right.
 
Chorus
 
Thanks a lot
Thanks a lot don¥t even know
Thanks a lot
 
Verse3
 
The clothes she wears mis-fit, and she¥s nervous when she speaks
her zombie mom and dad live in a separate house of freaks
i woke you up and i slit the throat of your confidence
and we laughed in the night, and i felt all right.
 
Chorus
 
Bridge
 
I¥m the one for you
¥cause i know all the dirty things you like to do
i¥m the fear in your eyes
i¥m the fire in your flies
i¥m the sound that buzzling around your head.
 
Chorus
 
If anyone can figure out the intro to
îLosing a whole yearî please send it to me.
