I've seen the great toil of man, watched me be erased
They’ve parted the seas but not yet made a key for the woman in chains
Everyone’s talking, everyone’s shouting, I’ll just be quiet, shall I? 
I read your script and my role just concerned me walking from room to room crying 

Nothing excites me
I’ve bottled my lightning 
The world doesn’t frighten me half as much as it can
No nothing excites me
I’m tired of the routine
Of crying for you and the things I can’t hold in my hand

Any mistakes that I’ve made, I’ll claim them as mine 
Paragon, virtue, the mother that hurt you, it’s all captured here in my smile
Lay your head on my breast, tell me your dreams, and i’ll put mine to bed
Sing me a lullaby, won’t you darling? For the life I almost had

Ah nothing excites me
I’ve bottled my lightning 
The world isn’t frightening me half as much as I wish it would 
No nothing excites me
I’m tired of the routine
Of crying for you and the way that I’ll look in my funeral suit

LYRICS:
Roll me up and smoke me in your living room
I’m so sick and tired she cries as she crawls back into her homemade cocoon
Fumigate my lungs with that funny laugh 
It’s too bad that he chooses the high life
Cuz he drives in a lane that’s too fast
Yeah he knows I’m always an option
So I Know I’ll always come last. 

Rack me up and take me I’ll go easily
Say each nights the same we get in by name and I’m his by quarter to three
Pick me up and hang me like a little girl
It’s too bad he’s in love with the evening
Licks his wounds as he ties his loose ends
Yeah I know if it’s me of a nightcap
I’m back to a stranger again (oh)

Fumigate my lungs with that funny laugh 
(oh) 
Why does she play the game if she knows she’ll always come last. 
(oh)
