Conditioner - Ripcord

Show up half an hour early
Just to say that you were there
Slip out, ride the metro uptown
No one sees you disappear
And all of the kindness you couldn't deny
Identical faces telling you why you matter
But you stare down the barrel of a meager supply
And you care but it's fair when your only reply is
Hey - thanks, can I pull the ripcord?
Hey - thanks, can I pull the ripcord?
I don't want to bite off more than I can afford
Can I pull the ripcord?
So you tried fitting into an alien skin
But it's weird here and you're still not clear what happened
And the boss back home might decide that you're soft
But it's fine if it means that they're shipping you off this planet
Hey - can I pull the ripcord?
Hey - thanks, can I pull the ripcord?
I don't want to bite off more than I can afford
Can I pull the ripcord?
Hey - thanks, can I pull the ripcord?
Hey - thanks, can I pull the ripcord?
I don't want to be this far from home anymore
I don't like these people
They don't like me more
I learned all that I could
Still not sure what for
Can I pull the ripcord?
Dispatch, back to the command ship
None of this went like we planned
No sir - the mission's not a failure
I've just seen all I can stand
