hospital for heroes

well i've been pissing in a cup for a couple of weeks

and not a single fucking one is an indictment of me

i'm like whoa-oh-oh

i'm like whoa-oh-oh

i told the scientists who visit 'bout the chemical drain

but nobody thinks i'm serious

they think i'm insane

i'm like whoa-oh-oh

i guess i just don't know

and so i'm sitting in this room and i'm hooked up on iv

and i've been watching everything on late night cable for free

because whoa-oh-oh

there's nowhere to go

sometimes i see a patient pass me by in the hall

and i can hear each of their thoughts but i don't like it all

because i'm shut up in this cell and they won't turn off the lights

the brightest fucking darkness it feels like on most nights

got super strength and ultra speed

that heightened consciousness i need

but everyone's all alone in the hospital for heroes

everyone's all dethroned by the chemicals that bring them to zero

everyone's all alone in the hospital for heroes

everyone's all alone with their thoughts is all depressed for a year

so please won't you ease it?

well i'd been pissing in a cup for a couple of weeks

before they finally explain they couldn't find a disease

i'm like whoa-oh-oh

i guess it's time to go

but sure enough they said i couldn't leave and be free

because my mind's too powerful for any society

i've got abilities their education can't understand

and their civic fucking duty's to be sure that i can't

attack the government

their people

or their children

or their property

so have a seat we'll figure it out

but immunity from pain or feeling

joyful in spite of everyone weeping

can't make us better

can't break us all out

we're in prison for life

that's what this song's about

immunity

no pain

no feeling

spiteful in spite of everyone weeping

can make us better

might make us forget

that we're in this together 'bout time that we met

cause everyone's all alone in the hospital for heroes

everyone all dethroned by the chemical that brings them to zero

everyone's all alone in the hospital for heroes

everyone's all been told that their thoughts are all that's brought them to zero

everyone's all alone in the hospital for heroes

everyone's all alone with their thoughts is all depressed for a year

so please won't you ease it?
