lyrics

At the end of my vacation
I learned that I'd be stayin'
I learned that I was home
And right at that very moment
I realized how much that place did suck
And I wanted to leave so bad

At the height of my hunger
I looked into the mirror
And saw that I was eating a candy heart
I spit it out, and I ran around the block three times
Collapsed on the ground
And I said to myself "This is the life, this is the life

This is the shit
This is the shit
Fuck this shit
This is so fucked up and I love it so much"

Right before my operation
The laughing gas they gave me
Brought some crazy thoughts into my head
I dreamed I was nowhere
When I woke up I'd forgotten how to get there
And there was blood everywhere
It was fucking awesome

Now the day I saw you, lover
In the arms of another
Well, I knew that I'd arrived

Yes, I belong here
And my fear belongs in my heart
And my heart holds a place for pain always
You're so fucked up and I love you so much

You are the shit
You are the shit
You crazy bitch
You're so fucked up and I love you so much

I am the shit
I am the shit
I'm full of it
I'm so fucked up and I love it so much

Oh yeah
Oh yeah
We're so fucked up
Oh yeah
We're so fucked up
We're so fucked up

And we belong here
And our fear belongs in our hearts
And our hearts will be full of pain always
