I'm alive in here
So alive in here
Pull it down a little please

I'm open wide in here
Smulderize in here
Saving Grace and killing me

You say this only makes me incomplete
I'm kicked around and rendered obsolite
Tell the mad chameleon he's not welcome anymore
I know what I'd looking for

Somewhere close
Somewhere safe
Somewhere I know
I know I'll never live in chains
The one is now aware
So stay away from me
I'm just too young to care

I can see in here
And I can feel in here
Comatose with common sense

I take my time in here
Someone get me out of here
What am I so against

I just wanna watch the whole world burn
Lost a million times and I won't learn
Show me someone innocent
I'll show you there's no proof
I may be gone but I'm no fool

I'm not close
I'm not safe
I don't know
Know, am I better off in chains
The one is not aware
So stay away from me
I'm just too young to care

I need
Somewhere close
Somewhere safe
Somewhere I know
I know I'll never live in chains
The one is now aware
So stay away from me
I'm just too young to care

Too young to care
