The Boy Who Wished for Wings

There's a snake in my room
 Yeah, he lives in my dresser
 I don't have the heart to kick him out
 He speaks in my voice and he tells me the heartsick secrets I keep to myself
 He says "You don't know how to love, and god forbid nobody knows how to love you, too"
 I can't tell the difference between his lies and his truths
 But I can hear the planes roaring to life overhead
 And every single night their engine din draws me from bed
 So let the acid rain wash over me in a flood of chemicals
 Baptize me in oil, I don't need this blood anymore
 My heart will hiss with steam and my lungs will fill with smog
 Ask me all about the boy who wished for wings and got it wrong
