[Verse 1]
If you could say something
Without sedating me
The air in your small world might clear to breathe

Laymen's terms
King of fools

[Verse 2]
Illiterate
You'd render me
In this bad scene
Playing to the gallery
And they remember all their lines
They all remember the dirt

[Chorus]
I'm through humoring you
I am learning to hate you
It's true
I'm through humoring you
I've been drinking and sleeping
My enemies' Holiday Inn

[Bridge]
Identified
We speak untruths
Because there's strength in numbers
Forced to relate
In a world depraved
Identify alone
[Verse 3]
We speak in tongues
Give me laymen's terms
The air in this small world might clear
But they won't remember you
They will remember the dirt, the joke

[Chorus]
I'm through humoring you
I am learning to hate you
It's true
I'm through humoring you
I've been living and dying
My enemies' Holiday Inn

[Outro]
Laymen's terms
King of fools
Walk with you
Walk with you
