I smoke away a cigarette
He doesn’t know my lungs are dead
Just wait until he breathes me in
And smells the places I have been
He'll never know just who I be
My mothers heart
Some fathers seed
And soon he’ll make the most of me
So trapped in free dumb as can be

I want to live
Where the open space grows
Where no body knows me
No nobody knows
And quiet I’ll create
The biggest machine
To clean all the dirty things
Keeping me mean

I stumble on a lovers kiss
The way the lips solemnly miss
The words so hard pressed to the tongue
Shoved down the throat, now to be sung
In throated laughs, and coughing screams
Down to my bones
A dogs wet dream
And soon I’ll make the most of me
So trapped in free dumb as can be

I want to live
Where the open space grows
Where no body knows me
No nobody knows
And quiet I’ll create
The biggest machine
To clean all the dirty things
Keeping me mean
