Get up son
Hit your head like a drum
Weeds are all growing in vain
Too much time
I got too much time
Living in a waste of space
Take yourself
Don't break yourself
It's all gonna be ok
Get used to it
Don't lose your head
It's all gonna be the same

She knows
Send a message to her
She knows
She knows
Get a message to her
She knows

Send a message to her
Send a message to her

Don't kill it kid
But don't let it die
There's a price sitting on your head
Face it down
Don't turn it around
Unless you wanna be where you been
Take yourself
Don't break yourself
It's all gonna be ok
Get used to it
Don't lose your head
It's all gonna be the same

She knows
Send a message to her
She knows
She knows
Get a message to her
She knows

Send a message to her
Send a message to her
Send a message to her
Send a message to her

I spell out her name in cigarettes and knives
Trying to see her
Get her a message on a dirty window
Trying to see her

I've been stripping the days off the sidewalk and pavement
The walls are all white and we're painting them whiter
For the zig-zag mainline
My radio's plastic
And I've tasted the fodder of a saccharine ending
Day job
Pay phone
One in a trillion
And the typecast heathen with the future all rancid
Something to believe
Something to believe
Something to believe
Something to believe that doesn't hurt your feelings

NOTES:
Compared to the final version of the song, this leaked version has a lot of differences. Most notably, there is no "Send a message to her" lyric during the chorus, and a lot of guitars and other instruments are not present here as well.
