Pardon Me Songtext
von Wolves at the Gate

Pardon me while I burst
Pardon me while I burst

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 neverending calamity
I need you to hear, I need you to see
That I have had all that 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 its 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 welcome vacation from
The burdens of the planet earth
Like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of being in 3D
But thinking so much differently

So pardon me while I burst into flames
I′ve had enough of the world and its 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
Never be the same, yeah

Pardon me while I burst into flames
Pardon me, pardon me, pardon me

So pardon me while I burst into flames
I′ve had enough of the world and its 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

Pardon me
Never be the same, yeah
