Wishful eyes
Fill this room up with the spirit of your pride
So that all the world can hear it go in vain
Oh, once again I'm cracked and empty, leaking
Trip into the drain, wait, I can explain
Inside myself that I am seeking

Little smiles
Every moment brings another wasted mile
Between everything and everything I need
Get up to leave, for the time has come for leaving
And if it don't succeed, we'll just bury all beliefs
That we could escape this empty evening

Someone take control of me
I am spinning in infinity
With my life its going endlessly from control
Take off your clothes for the time has come for sleeping
Because everybody knows the world continues though
Whether or not you're still breathing

Little child
I discovered you and hold you till good-bye
Just to punch you in the face with nothing more
Then what all my anger bore
Its little head it started screaming
That we’ve heard this all before
So just open up the door
And fill your mouth with freedom’s feeling

But someone take control of me
I am trudging with my infantry
With my army and my enemies taking hold
Take off your clothes for the time has come for sleeping
Because everybody knows the world continues though
Whether or not you're still breathing

    Jeff is one of the few people who can get away with lyrics about punching a young child in the face.
