cave in

Please take a long hard look through your textbook
Cuz i’m hist’ry
When I strap my helmet on, I’ll be long gone
Cuz i’ve been dying to leave
Yeah, I’ll ride the range and hide all my loose change
In my bedroom
Cuz riding a dirtbike down a turnpike always takes its toll on me
I’ve had just about enough of quote diamonds in the ruff
Because my backbone is paperthin
Get me out of this cavern or I’ll cave in
(I’ll cave in, I’ll cave in)

If the bombs go off, the sun will still be shining
(the sun will still be shining)
Because i’ve heard it said that every mushroom cloud has a silver lining
(though i’m always undermining too deep to know)
swallow a drop of gravel and blacktop
Cuz the road tastes like winter green
The wind and the rain smell of oil and octane mixed with stale gasoline
I’ll soak up the sound, try to sleep on the wet ground
I’ll get ten minutes give or take
Cuz I just don’t foresee myself getting drowsy
When cold integrity keeps me wide awake

Get me out of this cavern or I’ll cave in (cave in cave in cave in cave in
cave in cave in)
Get me out of this cavern or I’ll cave in

I’ll keep my helmet on just in case my head caves in
Cuz it my thoughts collapse or my framework snaps
It’ll make a mess like you wouldn’t believe
Tie my handlebars to the stars so I stay on track
And if my intensions stray I’ll wrench them away
Then I’ll take my leave and I wont even look back
I wont even look back
