Lyrics

With my ego in my gut
My babbling mouth would wash it up
(But now I've started learning how,)
I keep it shut

My door was never locked
Until one day a trigger come cocking
(But now I've started learning how,)
I keep it shut

Wide eyes would clean and dust
Things that decay, things that rust
(But now I've started learning how,)
I keep 'em shut
I keep 'em shut

Harm is in us
Harm is in us, but power to arm
Harm is in us
Harm in us, but power to arm
Harm is in us
("Leave it open!")
Harm is in us, but power to arm

Narrow mind would persecute it
Die a little to get to it
(But now I've started learning how.)
I leave it open

I kept it in a cage
Watched it weeping, but I made it stay
(But now I've started learning how.)
I leave it open
I leave it open

Harm is in us
Harm in us, but power to arm
Harm is in us
Harm in us, but power to arm

Harm is in us
("Leave it open!")
Harm in us, but power to arm
Harm is in us
Harm in us, but power to arm
Harm is in us
("Leave it open!")
Harm in us, but power to arm
Harm is in us
Harm in us, but power to arm
Harm is in us
Har in us, but power to arm
Harm is in us!
Harm is in us!
Harm is in us!
Harm is in us!
Harm is in us!
Harm is in us--
Harm in you and in me!

What you letting in?
Tell me what you're letting in
Say what we're gonna let in!

"We let the weirdness in
We let the weirdness in
We let the weirdness in
We let the weirdness in
We let the weirdness in."
