Incubus - Pardon Me

 

Make Yourself-1999



A decade ago, I never thought I would be
At twenty-three, on the verge of spontaneous combustion Woe-is-me.
But I guess that it comes with the territory, an ominous landscape of never ending calamity.
I need you to hear I need you to see that I have had all I can take and exploding seems like a definite possibility to me.

So pardon me while I burst into flames.
I’ve had enough of the world and it’s people’s mindless games.
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame.
Pardon me, pardon me. . . . I’ll never be the same.

Not two days ago, I was having a look in a book and I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees.
I said, I can relate, ‘cause lately I’ve been thinking of combustication as a welcomed vacation from the burdens of the planet earth.
Like gravity, hypocrisy, and perils of being in 3-D...and thinking so much differently.

So pardon me while I burst into flames.
I’ve had enough of the world and it’s people’s mindless games.
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame.
Pardon me, pardon me.... I’ll never be the same.
