lirik lagu nobuddyisperfect - no chains, no rules
[verse 1]
new port, new cage, new set of eyes
that look at me with practiced calm
this ‘grand academy’ is a lie
a soothing and pretentious balm
for wealthy parents who can’t cope
they ship their problems overseas
and wrap it up in fancy hope
and charge exorbitant d~mn fees
so i got a mission, clear and cold
a script i know by heart and soul:
unleash the beast they can’t control
until i make myself un~whole
enough for them to send me back
or send me anywhere but here
i’ll be the gear that’s bound to crack
i’ll be their solitary fear
[pre~chorus]
i’ll show them what a broken boy can do
when he’s got nothing left to lose
i’ll burn this place down just for you
with a short and self~destructive fuse…
[chorus]
no chains, no rules, i’m off the lead
i’m planting disobedient seeds!
i’m fueled by anger, hurt, and greed
for any chaos that succeeds!
i’m skipping class, i’m breaking glass
i’m running faster than my past!
just waiting for the axe to fall
to hear ’em say i couldn’t last!
the gorilla glue’s a hazy friend
that keeps the shakes out of my hand
i’ll push this ’til the bitter end
’til no one’s left to understand!
[verse 2]
so i’m pickin’ locks on dormitories
writin’ horror stories on the walls in soot
ignorin’ all the mandatory lessons
’bout the square of the hypotenuse, i stay put
in the boiler room, a place of peace
where the hissing steam can drown the noise
a temporary sweet release
from all the condescending voices
i’m called before the headmaster ingar
i’m ready for the same old speech
the disappointed, tired scorn
the final lesson she will teach
about my failure and my shame
the way i’ve squandered every chance
i’m ready to take all the blame
i’ve practiced this contemptuous stance
she listens to the charges red
a list of chaos and of theft
i’m waitin’ for her to shake her head
and tell me there is nothing left…
[bridge]
but she just… folds her hands. and waits
and says, “that must have been exhausting.”
…what?
“all that work… all that energy…
just to prove to us what you already believe about yourself.”
she doesn’t yell. she doesn’t scream
she doesn’t call my parents
she assigns me to the kitchen
“you’ve broken enough,” she says
“let’s see if you can create.”
i refuse. i smash a pressure gauge
the master just hands me a rag. and says
“we’ll need to fix that. together.”
and i… i don’t know what to do
the fight is gone
there’s nothing to push against
[outro]
no chains, no rules…
but the walls don’t shake or fall
they built a cage that’s strong
enough to stand and catch it all
and for the first time in my life
beneath a foreign moon
the quiet feels more like a balm…
than an empty, waiting tomb
maybe…
this is my cocoon
oooh
this is my cocoon
oooh
