Sharks and Danger Songtext

von Alexisonfire

-St. Catherines Psychiatric Help Line, this is Nancy...

-Ummm...I'm not exactly sure how to go about explaining this...
What's been happening over the road...
You know, I've been kinda keeping correspondance to my parents for a while...
But I'm starting to get the feeling that...throughout (?) the letter writing process...
Like, uh...like, the letters, they just keep getting shorter and shorter...
And uh...I'm starting to get the feeling that...
That maybe one day all the letters will stop coming...all together
Maybe I'll start asking myself all kinds of stupid questions...

-As life hangs beside me
I gather all that I can
You were never one for confrontation
But now it lies all in your hands

-...Like...like, what if there's, what if there's a spot on my body
You know to touch, like, by my heart, you know
You know, like, if we were to launch (?) rockets in space and it's like
What's the point of, like, my house and the next offices?
Like, you know, what am I supposed to do, you know?
I don't know, all these stupid questions going through my head, like, all the time
Like what if, I had some inoperable form of cancer in my brain, you know, I'm keepin' alive
You know, what if, what if there is a God and I'm completely in trouble, like?
You know...who am I kidding?
You understand what I'm saying?
It's not a joke, I'm not joking, not a joke

Who will dare to be irrational
Who will be there...
We're running out of options...
Who will be useful...
I'm going insane
I can't think anymore
I don't know what to tell you...
Do you see where I'm coming from?
See what I'm trying to say?
Do you see what I'm trying to tell you? (fades)

....

Who will be there to tell
Me how stupid I am? [4x]

Who will keep me from lashing out? (lashing out)
Anxiety chokes me like razor wire (razor wire)
Who will keep me from lashing out? (lashing out)
Anxiety chokes me like razor wire (razor wire)

I... (can't penetrate the crowd)
And anxiety chokes me like...

(Now it's all in your hands)

Anxiety chokes me like razor wire
...Razor wire
