lyrics

this is where the story starts
a stupid boy and his stupid heart
brags about his basement
in airplane conversations

grandma would be proud of him
he found a cure for oxygen
now death is a convenience
now death is a convenience

I tell myself when I go to bed
the monster's after them instead
like sinners and complainers
not stupid entertainers

ghosts that make me talk this way
like demons moving through my brain
now death is a convenience
now death is a convenience

talk is cheap if its mechanical
into the sleep machine under alien control

seventeen just ain't that young
to move to france and buy a gun
travel through the future
find your love and shoot her

build a tower made of stone
hope that god leaves you alone
prophesize the rapture
history channel special

talk is cheap if its mechanical
into the sleep machine under alien control

jesus showed me the galaxy
put all my friends on a tiny screen
we all laughed and played monopoly
and I go bored of heaven
I got sick of living I said

talk is cheap if its mechanical
into the sleep machine under alien control
