Less Than Zero (feat. Love Ghost)

Get out of my head or I'll fill it with lead
My knuckles are red, better watch where you tread
Your words are a knife, twisting into my life
Like the cigarette burns that we made last night
Blood on the ground makes the world spin around
The emperor's clothes doesn't match his new crown
And I keep on making the same mistake
If I'm not dreaming than I must be awake

I'm not like them
I'll pretend for the weekend
Ran out of thread
Watch me go off the deep end
Less than zero
Don't be a hero
Baby, it's only the weight of the world

I rest my head on guilt and hate
And make my bed with the pain I create
Grow back my soul in the shape of a hole
Doesn't matter the toll, we have damage control
I wish that I was just like you
So unaffected, so unamused
I'll shatter my skull just to have what's true
Take the blue out the sky like your knees so bruised

I'm not like them
I'll pretend for the weekend
Ran out of thread
Watch me go off the deep end
Less than zero
Don't be a hero
I'm not like them
I'll pretend for the weekend
Ran out of thread
Watch me go off the deep end
Less than zero
Don't be a hero
Took what I could even if it was broken
Cry me a river I'll swim in your ocean
Less than zero
Don't be a hero
Baby, it's only the weight of the world
It's only the weight of the world
