Driving back to Philadelphia but there's nothing for me there
Now the books would say that's romance but I don't even care
I just want someone to look at me the way my father looks at nature
A cataclysmic revelation, an over exaggeration

I wanna rip my world apart
What's it gonna take to restart?

I came alive in the fire tonight and I dance on the streets of this town
I railed against everything they taught me
But I wouldn't burn it down
What's wrong with a little rebellion?
What's the point of getting paid?
I spend a quarter of my income
Just to say what I have to say

It's relentless, oblivion, it's a cosmic, insignificance
If nothing matters that I think that it's alright
It's impossible we're here at the same time
I track dirt into my parents' house
I see the good in my dog's eyes
She doesn't know how big the world is
But she'd never leave my side

I wanna rip my world apart
What's it gonna take to restart?
I wanna run until I drop
What's gonna make my heart stop?

I run my fingers through the water, I slam my head against the concrete
I keep a replica Colt 45
Between my mattress and box spring
But I know that the end is coming
I can feel it closing in
And if no one's actually out there
Then I'm all alone in this

I wanna rip my world apart
What's it gonna take to restart?
I wanna run until I drop
What's gonna make my heart stop?
