This is for the lions living in the wiry broke down frames of my friends' bodies
When the floodwater comes, it ain't gonna be clear, it's gonna look like mud.

This is for the snakes and the people they bite. For the friends I've made, for the sleepless nights
For the warning signs Ive completely ignored. There's an amount to take, reasons to take more

It's no big surprise you turned out this way
When they closed their eyes and prayed you would change
And they cut your hair, and sent you away
You stopped by my house the night you escaped
(pause)
With tears in my eyes, I begged you to stay
You said Hey man, I love you, but no fucking way
[Pre-Chorus]*
I'm Esure that we could fiG#nd something for Ayou to do on staF#ge
MaybEe shake a tambourine,G# or when I sing, Ayou sing harmoniF#es

This is for the lake that me and my friends swim in Naked and dumb on a drunken night
And it should've felt good, but I could hear the Jaws theme song On repeat in the back of my mind

Make sure you kiss your knuckles before you punch me in the face There are lessons to be learned
Consequences for all the stupid things I say and it is no big surprise
you turned out this way. The spark in your eyes, the look on your face, I will not be brave
[Pre-Chorus]*
I'm Esure that we could fiG#nd something for Ayou to do on staF#ge
MaybEe shake a tambourine,G# or when I sing, Ayou sing harmoniF#es
I waEnna contribute to theG# chaos I don't waAnna watch and thF#en complain
