Or had simply withered away
So eager to take the shape of the previous container
Like some vile liquid
Try to boil it out

[Bridge: Katie Dvorak]
(Tear at your sprainеd neck and)
(Scream out your sprained nеck and)
(Tear at your sprained neck and)
(Scream out your sprained neck and)
(Tear at your sprained neck and)
(Scream out your sprained neck and)
Never get better and never do anything
Never get better and never do anything
(Tear at your sprained neck and)
(Scream out your sprained neck and)
(Tear at your sprained neck and)
Never get better and never do anything
Never get better and never do anything
(Anything, anything, anything, anything, anything)

It won't burn with the oven off
It won't burn with the oven off
It won't burn with the oven off
(Tear at your sprained neck and)
That damn persistent slime
(Scream out your sprained neck and)
Just burn the whole house down
(Tear at your sprained neck and)
(Scream out your sprained neck and)
Never get better and never do anything
Never get better and never do anything
