Lyrics:
 You don't seem to understand the deal
 I don't give two shits on how you feel
 You been burnt by my lighter
 You been burnt by my lighter
 And my lighter is held down by my thumb

 You’re living in thought soul
 You’re living in thought soul
 You’re living in thought soul, oh

 You tried to turn me off
 But you couldn't even turn me down
 As I said, then I told you were livin' in hell
 You’re nailed to the ground (nailed to the ground)
 And now your found (now you're found)
 My thumb is yours and yours is a startin' to swell

 You’re living in thought soul
 You’re living in thought soul
 You’re living in thought soul, oh
