A decade ago I never thought I would be At twenty three On the verge of spontaneous combustion Woe-is-me But I guess that it comes With the territory An ominous landscape of never ending calamity I need you to hear I need you to see That I have had all I can take And exploding seems like A definite possibility to me So pardon me while I burst into flames I've had enough of the world And it's people's mindless games So pardon me while I burn And rise above the flame Pardon me, pardon me I'll never be the same Not two days ago I was having a look In a book and I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees I said, "I can relate," Cause' lately I've been thinking of combustication as a welcomed vacation from The burdens of the planet earth Like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of being in 3-D And thinking so much differently So pardon me while I burst into flames I've had enough of the world And it's people's mindless games So pardon me while I burn And rise above the flame Pardon me, pardon me I'll never be the same
