[Chorus]
All your life
Holding scared people back
All your life
Defending your attack
[Verse 1]
I can't feel my face now, anyway
And all my ticks will soon betray
That I am long checked out of this fight
And teaching lessons never learned
Authority you've never earned
Must be nice to always be right
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
If we can skip the third degree
I'll surrender to you happily
I'm ready to repeat the charade
I'll drool into my loving cup
A master-class in shutting up
Let's wallow in the mess that we've made
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
You can't wipe off your happy face
You're proud to be a sad disgrace
One more arm that's fit to be tied
[Hook](x2)
All your life
[Bridge]
A litany that reads like a poem
A symphony of sticks and stones
[Verse 4]
I'll drool into my loving cup
A master-class in fucking up
Wallow in this mess of our own
[Hook](x4)
[Verse 3]
[Hook](x6)
[Outro]
I can't feel my face now, anyway
And all my ticks will soon betray
That I am long checked out of this fight

He told Billboard the song almost didn’t get recorded:
I was really thinking, ‘Maybe this isn’t so good. Maybe we don’t necessarily need to record this. But we did it...
