People who are told, people who are bold
People who are cold, people fork the road
People who scold, people who hold
Someone who said
Said it was better off dead
Mustn’t have read
The signals that you gave
Take me away to your crimson ship
I won’t take it anymore
It’s hard enough with you on my lip
I can’t take it anymore
People who try, people who cry
People who lie, people glorify
People who die, people who get high
Someone who saw
Said it was against the law
Social rules install
So pick up the phone and call
Take me away to your crimson ship
I don’t need it anymore
It’s not enough with you on my lips
I can’t take it anymore
I don’t need it anymore
I can’t take it anymore
