[Verse] (F - Fsus4)

Never want my hand cut off

Never want a hacking cough

Never need a cliffside push

Never turn my brain to mush

Always give me what I lack

Always take the best parts back

Always recognize your fate

Always just a moment late

Left is where I always turn

Left is how I'm forced to learn

Left the route my walking takes

Left alone with my mistakes

Up against a person who

Up till now I never knew

Up from hell the answer blew

Up or down, it's up to you

[Chorus] (slower)

Db Eb F Fsus4 (F to Fsus4 main theme rhythm)

Drop me off the Chinese wall

And peel my fingers off the rim

I come unglued while in mid-air

And land to reform

Limb by limb --Back to Main Theme--

Chanted: Limb by limb by limb by limb (Mike and Fish)

Sung: And I am taken far away (Page)

Trey:

Lingering slowly and melting away

Tossed with the salad and baled with the hay

Pooling like water that drips from above

Trampled by lambs and pecked by the dove

Silence is suddenly smothering me

Nothing I touch and nothing I see

Possesses a pulse so it's fit to be seen

If I am a drone then where is my queen?

Lingering slowly and melting away

*above lines repeated randomly*
