I set it all on fire, it burned away in the night
Watching with eyes so tired, the orange and the blue arise
Then I sped off on a motorcycle, like everything you dreamed
I'll create a universe that you can barely see

[Chorus]
Inside or outside corner in the night
The coroner hides underneath the stairway
Where the birds spin sticks in the corridors
Don't tell the others
The cider house side corner in the night
It's poison, they’re boarding up the windows
One down and they know it's going to slip
So don't tell the others

(Above my head, they'll fly
With their lives that are more than mine
Lift up my hands to the light
And feel life that is more)

I built a wooden backdrop
I made it look awfully real
I set it up in the woodshop and lit it electric teal
Then coughed up just a little blood
It splashed into my hand
Please run and get father now
Because I'm thinking this is bad...

[Chorus x4]
Inside or outside corner in the night
The coroner hides underneath the stairway
Where the birds spin sticks in the corridors
Don't tell the others
The cider house side corner in the night
It's poison, they’re boarding up the windows
One down and they know it's going to slip
So don't tell the others
