Monsters Lyrics - Something For Kate

i was hanging upside down from the overpass 

waiting to discover something about the world 

i couldn't get with the program and i couldn't listen to them 

it was like trying to think in reverse 

and i don't want to slide into apathy 

and i don't want to die in captivity 

but these monsters follow me around 

hunting me down, trying to wipe me out 

wipe me out 

i was hiding away under water 

waiting for distance and buying some time 

trying to be two hundred thousand years younger 

so i could excuse myself from humankind 

'cause i don't want to be a container 

or a bastard with a ten page disclaimer 

but these monsters spin me around 

get me down, just try and shut me out 

shut me out 

hold it in your head 

believe and make believe and make believe 

i was hiding away under water 

waiting for distance, waiting for time 

and i don't want to slide into apathy and i don't 

and i don't want to live in captivity
