The Tanbark Is Hot Lava

The old returns while the new can bore
Cause you're the one who fell
Into a self-created hell
We've worn it out

It took time to realize
It's a chore to recognize
What your world could take; it's overgrown
Take it all away now
Real soon we'll take this all the way down

The old returns while the new can bore
Cause you're the one who fell
Into a self-created hell
There is no way out
When you build a stubborn shell
That shields from any help
We've worn it out

You tried to maximize
But it came as no surprise
You hurled a stake into your own dome
Take it all away now
Real soon we'll take this all the way down

Please, don't, go, stay

The old returns while the new can bore
Cause you're the one who fell
Into a self-created hell
There is no way out
When you build a stubborn shell
That shields from any help

(She was beautiful, bring her back!)

The old returns while the new can bore
You're the one who fell
To a self-created hell

Take it all away now
There is no way out
There is no way out
When you build a stubborn shell
That shields from any help

We've worn it out
We've worn it out
