Boy Out Of Body
(ZEMPEL)

Stepped out on the balcony
smoked my first cigarette in a week
after a minute, slipped out of me
started searching frantically for the leak

Before I had a chance to seal myself up
I'm slippin' again and oozing down the street
I can't explain to you don't know the words for
walkin' without my feet

Looking down at my empty shell
a paper cut and some paper words
I'd color me in between the lines
if I could figure out how to get back inside

Before I had a chance to wake myself up
I'm trippin' again I should have tied my shoes
Somebody tell me why nobody warned me
about these don'ts and do's

Need you here tonight Did you see the light ?

Stepped up to the microphone
everyone's watchin' and I know what they see
a little boy putting on a show
attention center of blasphemy
and looking down from the precipice
my face must look loke an unpainted mask
who in the world could believe all this
well here I'm standing, need you even ask ?
