I’m Charlie Fear, and this is my partner in rage
We got the all important horrors today
Replayed, all day, from the second you stir
Prepare to have your headwashed or whatever my paycheque prefers

Lead me far away
‘Cause I don’t wanna be here anymore
As I suffocate, now

We go round, I’m stuck in hell
24 hours on a carousel
Say goodbye and say farewell
To the world that you know

With pinned back eyes and a rabid obsession to know
The indiscretions and the fear they sow
I’m bloodshot wise, with hypertension to feed
I swallow fear for every breakfast, and hatred every other damn meal

Lead me far away
‘Cause I don’t wanna be here anymore
As I suffocate, now

We go round, I’m stuck in hell
24 hours on a carousel
Say goodbye and say farewell
To the world that you know
There’s no broadcast without smoke
What we reap is what you stoke
Breathing stories till we choke
On the world that we know

Pan away from love and zoom in on all our flaws
No bulletin has solved more problems than it caused
Bad news travels fast but our nightmares travel faster
We interrupt our scheduled hell for an even worse disaster

With the TV on and your head turned off
Trying to figure out how we could get so lost
It’s a three square con, and we eat because
We’re a country built on shame, and taking pleasure in everyone’s loss

Take us far away
We don’t deserve to be here anymore
Let us suffocate, now

We go round, I’m stuck in hell
24 hours on a carousel
Say goodbye and say farewell
To the world that you know
There’s no broadcast without smoke
What we reap is what you stoke
Breathing stories till we choke
On the world that we know
