Tether Songtext

Tether Songtext
I′m the fucked up kid in school
Dead in the eyes of the rules
I got sent home for throwing up
My friends think being sick is cool
And my dad beat up my mom
'Cause she′s an alcoholic
But he's an alcoholic too
Through the looking glass of abuse
I wanna sleep next to you
After school, before my mom calls
To see when I'm coming home
I can finally see where the tether ends
Mortally coiled around nothingness
Mortally coiled around nothingness
Mortally coiled around nothingness
I′m the fucked up kid in school
Maybe I′ll join the army
No one will ever know me truly
My rage has silenced a cry for help
My mom's dealer put a gun to my head
For a laugh, for his friends
And in that moment I knew I could kill
My mother′s prison is herself
Dead in the eyes of the rules
I got sent home for throwing up
My friends think being sick is cool
And my dad beat up my mom
'Cause she′s an alcoholic
But he's an alcoholic too
Through the looking glass of abuse
I wanna sleep next to you
After school, before my mom calls
To see when I'm coming home
I can finally see where the tether ends
Mortally coiled around nothingness
Mortally coiled around nothingness
Mortally coiled around nothingness
I′m the fucked up kid in school
Maybe I′ll join the army
No one will ever know me truly
My rage has silenced a cry for help
My mom's dealer put a gun to my head
For a laugh, for his friends
And in that moment I knew I could kill
My mother′s prison is herself
