Pterodactyls -

Obsessed with all your posters of the fractals

Whose contours mirror your complexity

Your endless need for someone to react’ll

Be the thing to lead to more you need

And don’t you ever say you got my back

You’ll never have a single sorry slice of me

The voices that you hear are pterodactyls

Everywhere you go, you just coast

You just glide

And all your errors, we forgive

Your reign of terror we can let slide

But careful where you go

You never always know how low they fly

Face down

Nose dive

Cut through an orange sky

To find you where you hide

Collect a set of grudges in a satchel

To be dispensed when you’ve condensed to tar

And do you hear the laughter

Like a pack of jackals

Cackling at every hint of what you are

Now feel it ending

As your nervous endings crackle

Tackled at the apex of your ascent

The visions you’ve been sent are pterodactyls

Everywhere you go, you just coast

You just glide

And all your errors, we forgive

Your reign of terror we can let slide

But careful where you go

You never always know how low they fly

Inside

Face down

Nose dive

Cut through a black sky

To show you the harsh light

Pterodactyls tear the thing you love apart

Even as you cling to them with bleeding heart

Even as you sing to them, how great thou art

Pterodactyls tear the thing you love apart

And you can try to run

That will make it more fun for them

You can implore them

See where it gets you

But when they all surround you

And put their arms around you

You’re through

I warned you, I warned you

I warned you, I warned you

I warned you, I warned you

I warned you, I warned you

You took the final word

You struck the final chord

I warned you, I warned you

I warned you, I warned you

I warned you, I warned you

I warned you, I warned you

You took the final word

You struck the final chord
