Structure + Lyrics:  
 
Intro  
 
Verse 1  
take advantage of these times, you said  
you let me down  
it hasn't been the first time  
as i'm falling in the pit of fire my mind's made up  
i'm never coming back here  
 
Chorus  
how long would it take me to walk across the united states all alone?  
the west coast has been traumatized  
and i think i'm the only one still alive  
 
Verse 2  
is it just a coincidence to see you by yourself with no direction?  
now its time to move on and  
don't you know that things aren't getting better  
 
Chorus  
how long would it take me to walk across the united states all alone?  
the west coast has been traumatized  
and i think i'm the only one still alive  
 
Bridge  
when the world caves in what are you going to do  
when the world caves in what are you going to do for me?  
when the world caves in what are you going to do  
when the world caves in what are you going to do for me?  
 
(don't try and stop me  
because i'm falling fast into this pit of fire which surrounds us all  
in a blanket of fear that i've been wrapped in for years  
you can't stop me)  
 
Chorus (soft)  
how long would it take me to walk across the united states all alone?  
the west coast has been traumatized  
and i think i'm the only one still alive  
 
Chorus  
how long would it take me to walk across the united states all alone?  
the west coast has been traumatized  
and i think i'm the only one still alive
