Played follow the leader 
Keeping my steps in time 
Counting on the wonder ahead 
I leave the pain behind 

It's on me 
It's all mine 
Go away 
They're my mistakes 

They're not your problem 
Pinned down in this heaven 
I'll die a thousand times 
Aware of the damage ahead 

I'll leave the pain behind 
Another day 
A perfect day 
A twinge of pain 

The sting of the needle 
So warm at the bottom 
Warm never felt so kind 
And for a moment or two 

I leave it all behind 
It's on me 
It's all mine 
Go away, they're my mistake and not your problem 

Black dog 
White picket fences 
Mow them down and dance in the rip tide 
Face down in consequences 

Crack me up and stay on your own side 
Another day 
A perfect day 
A twinge of pain, the sting of the needle 

Starin at the walls provide 
A brilliant sight through eyes of the needle 
I wish I may 
I wish I might 

I pray my soul to keep tonight 
When all the walls start staring back 
A perfect day 
A sting for the last time
