Over The Handlebars

Verse:
My thoughts go out to your mother
You must be glad that she’s not with us-no more
Can’t see the mess that you’ve made, that you’re stuck in

Guilt hides beneath the surface
Waiting for your foot-ting to fall
You’ve chosen this path, now follow it up and crawl through

Pre:
The bigger, the picture
Words that don’t cross your mind
Small minded, lopsided
Suits your palette far much more

You
Don’t
Want
To know

…to know…

Chorus:
Smoke hangs on your clothes
The smell of distant love
Awaken all alone
In a pool of your own blood

You’ve pushed it too far
You’ve tried karma’s patience for too long
When will you regain control, consciousness?
Realised you’ve flown over(and out, of control)

Verse:
You think you’d be happy
Living the life that we’d all love(secretly)
When money’s solely a number

(Slowly ticking down, trickling down your back)

And all the parties blur into one
Throat deep in all the troubles
Thinking “how has life lost all of its fun?”

Wake up, where you don’t recognise
Hospital gates open with familiarity
A bed reserved for you

Pre:
The bigger, the picture
Words that don’t cross your mind
Small minded, lopsided
Suits your palette far much more

You
Don’t
Want
To know

…to know…

Chorus:
Smoke hangs on your clothes
The smell of distant love
Awaken all alone
In a pool of your own blood

You’ve pushed it too far
You’ve tried karma’s patience for too long
When will you regain control, consciousness?
Realised you’ve flown…
Over the handlebars, kid

Bridge:
You think that I’m cruel now
Picking at your front teeth
But you’re the one who cried out for a “saviour”-of sorts-
And asked for some relief

You think I’m that cruel now
Picking at your front teeth
But you’re the one who screamed out for the “saviour”
And asked for some…

My thoughts go out to your mother
(…You must be proud…)
(…She must be proud…)
Heaven help you

Chorus:
You’ve pushed it too far
You’ve tried karma’s patience for too long
When will you regain control, consciousness?
Realised you’ve flown over(and out and control)

Over the handlebars, kid
