Song lyrics
VERSE 1:
He wears his heart safety pinned to his backpack
his backpack is all that he knows...
Shot down by strangers whose glances can cripple
the heart and devour the soul...

CHORUS:
All alone he turns to stone
while holding his breath half to death
Terrified of what's inside
to save his life
he crawls like a Worm from a Bird
(ALL ALONE)
(crawls like a worm from a bird)

Whispers of...(just keep working...just keep working...im terrified)

VERSE 2:
Out of his mind away
pushes him whispering:
"Musta been out of his mind..."
Mid-day dillusions of pushing this
out of his head
make him out of his mind.. 

CHORUS
All alone he turns to stone
while holding his breath half to death
Terrified of what's inside
to save his life
he crawls like a worm...
(crawls like a worm!)
crawls like a Worm from a Bird

BREAK:

CHANTING:
(ALL ALONEEE)
crawls like a worm from a bird
(ALL ALONEEE)
crawls like a worm from a bird
(ALL ALONEEE)
crawls like a worm...
crawls like a worm from a Bird...

Now he knows
if he can't relieve it, it grows...
and so it goes...
he crawls like a worm...
(crawls like a worm from a bird)

PRECHORUS
out of his mind away
pushes him whispering: musta been outta his mind

CHORUS:
All alone he turns to stone
while holding his breath half to death
Terrified of what's inside
to save his life
he crawls like a Worm from a Bird

All alone he's
holding his breath half to death(holding his breath half to death)
Terrified to save his life
he crawls like a worm (crawls like a worm)
crawls like a worm (crawls like a worm)
from a bird...
(ALL ALONEEE)
crawls like a worm from a bird
(ALL ALONEEE)
crawls like a worm from a bird
(ALL ALONEEE)
CRAWLS LIKE A WORM...
CRAWLS LIKE A WORM...
CRAWLS LIKE A WORM FROM A bird...

"Musta been out of his mind..."
Mid-day dillusions of pushing this
out of his head
MAYBE out of his mind..

CHORUS
All alone he turns to stone

Terrified of what's inside

Definately one of my favorite songs ever. I'm happy - The Used were due for a comeback, and it looks like it'll be a good one. :]

I like the darker sound of this song, and the changes they've made. It's gonna be awesome.

The first time I heard of this song was a while back on MTv, I saw the video and my jaw dropped. I really got into the song, and time as all songs lost my interest in this one, till recently a friend was talking about songs that they could not get out of their heads, and this one came up. So I decided to check up on it, and refresh my memory on it, and well I want it again.


I loved the video, I think that it´s the only song I like from The Used so far, since it is the only one that I gave a chance. But if it´s like how I hear that this song was the great come back, I don´t think that I will like any other song they have since I done placed them on a great pedistal. and any other song would decrease that pedistal and make me not like it.
