Oh, maybe you should make a list for me of everything important in this world.
In a note of urgency cause I don't know how to feel.
Or maybe you should stay a mystery and I know you as well as anyone else.
And you will appear the same to me cause I don't know how to feel.

Oh, careful now you'll hurt yourself.
Careful now, you'll hurt, you'll hurt someone else.

Oh, maybe you should make a list of me of everything important in this world.
In a note of urgency cause I don't know how to feel
I threw everything out that doesn't make sense to found a thousand more things that don't make sense.
And I can't help but get lost in a fault like this when I don't know how to hide myself in open air
Where I'm all alone, alone, alone.

Oh, careful now, you'll hurt yourself.
Careful now, you'll hurt, you'll hurt someone...
Careful now, you'll hurt yourself.
Careful now, you'll hurt, you'll hurt someone else.

    Aaron Marsh said in an interview that this song was written as a letter to God when he was doubting, trying to tell God to leave him alone.
