Tokyo Teddy Bear

To my loving mom and dad, I'm sorry and I'm to blame
Knees weak and crumbling, thumb pressed and bitten away
To my brother, sister, and the rest, I'll see you around
My sole is blackening, I'm breaking all of it down, yeah

Measure out the size of it, sure, any pattern will do
Ends justify the seams, it's all of the same to you

I cried "Why can't I just be loved?" to no one
Maybe grinding my old scissors I
Could slice the look my off my face

Send me a sign, some god on high, show me the words I need to know
So say I'm fine and clear my mind
'Cause why not? I don't know
Facing a new day with a new pain, rocking up and down the night
Ripping at seams, I beg and plead, just sew me up again

To the world I say goodbye, and sir, I'm wishing you well
Pushing out my chest to see me drool through tiresome hell

What do I spy with fully open eyes?
All that I spy are idiots and lies!
What do I spy with fully open eyes?
All that I spy are idiots and lies!

Aah, can never get enough of the right stuff
Needles oversized to pulverize this heart beating out my chest

Send me a sign, some god on high, show me the words I need to know
So say I'm fine and clear my mind
'Cause why not? I don't know
Facing a new day with a new pain, rocking up and down the night
Ripping at seams, I beg and plead, just sew me up again

There's nothing to find, no, nothing to find, I severed everything I had
Sinking alive through waves of twine, dragging me down alone
I'm nowhere to find, no, nowhere to find, threw me aside and left again
Running away from now a place I'll never call a home

Am I alive? Aah, shut up! More lies falling out this living mask
Give me the endgame, skip the foreplay before I explode
Can I ever change? Can I stay the same?
Fade away? But save who I am inside!
Ripping at seams, I pull the string to finally meet the end

Days at end, the flames alit with life are starting to loom
Patch it up without me then, cause anybody will do
