Song: 13 Yr. Old Heroin Addict In TV Land

They say, "Come here, child, and take my hand
We're off to see the people in the good wise land
In an attempt to end your pain
To put it all to rest
Get back to understanding it's a family that's best"
Rock-a-bye baby, don't be scared
I'll be there in the morning to hold your hand
All that is wrong, we'll try and make it right
We'll search for a way to end your fight
Another day has ended, never to return
So many things have come and gone
And all your bridges burn

Yeah, all my bridges burn
To the ground now, but anyway
Yeah, all my bridges burn

And who are all these people on this talk show
They've got an hour to try to tell me how to live my life
They don't know me, they don't know
The extend of the pain I carry inside
The freaks turn their backs on me and laugh
The ratings go up, it's such a gas
The queen steps forth, holds our her hand
Looks me in the eyes, she smiles, she says

Come here, child, let me hold your hand
You're here among my people in T.V. land
The attempt to end your pain, you sold your tears to us
Now we go home to luxury and you to street and bust
Another day has ended, never to return
So many things have come and gone
And all your bridges burn

Yeah, all my bridges burn
To the ground now, but anyway
Yeah, all my bridges burn
To the ground now, but anyway
All my bridges burn

To the ground, anyway they say to me
"If you were my child, you little shit
Then this is how it would be"

The shadows on the wall
Hold no character to me, they think I'm weak
The shadows on the wall
Hold no character to me and I won't break
The shadows on the wall
Hold no character to me and I won't break

When they say, "Come here, child
Come here, child"

They say, "Hey there, child, did we make you a man?
Did we give you some reason, make you finally understand?
In attempt to end your pain, put it all to rest
Get back to understanding it's a family that's best"
Rock-a-bye baby, don't be scared
I'll be there in the morning to hold your hand
And all that is wrong, we'll try to make it right
We'll search for a way to end your fight
Another day has ended, never to return
So many things have come and gone
And all your bridges burn

Yeah, all my bridges burn
To the ground now, but anyway
Yeah, all my bridges burn
To the ground now, but anyway
All my bridges burn
To the ground now, but anyway
All my bridges burn
To the ground now, but anyway
