you’ve got time to start again if you don’t like who you are now or were then and you ask why where i’ve been has me thinking that it’s all distortion everyone knows best it seems free disposition’s screaming but loud is extreme abjection fed through disesteem has me thinking that it’s all distortion i’ve been replacing my reason with emotion you can’t be sure but a friend once told me though he’s not positive he’s still optimistic that everything’s cool and they say to be yourself but i can’t be yourself it’s a confusing path but i’m walking with your foot stuck in my mouth so don’t tell me it’s ok to care for ones you feel don’t belong or lend a broken hand to feed on or keep it real and write my own song we’ve got time to start again if we don’t like who we are now or were then

you could say you love me more when i’m listening i could smash my phone for sure but what are we missing? this world is eating us alive but who am i kidding? i could wear this 9 to 5 on the day that i’m dying my mind’s always stuck in a move but I’m thinking about thinking all the time you know i’m dying to be here but i’ve got to take the hardest right information’s bought and sold in the market that keeps us all cold like the warmth that the honest can’t seem to afford and i’ve heard that we don’t need to look anymore desperately seeking confirmation to prove that we’re all dead inside keeps us young but names lose their fun and my fist’s as tight as your tongue and the markets that keep us all cold like the warmth that the honest can’t seem to afford and i’ve heard that time has been looking for you and you know that we don’t need to do anything we don’t want to do you could say you love me more when i’m listening i could smash my phone for sure because fuck what we’re missing my mind’s always stuck in a move but i’m thinking about getting some rest you know i’m dying to be here but i’ve got to throw my hardest left information’s killing me but i won’t die today

another night goes by i sit here all alone there’s no one on the phone i think i want to die but i cant cry no more i’m sick of the world i feel it every day i sit here all alone it never goes away here comes that pain but i can’t cry for no one i’m sick of the world it used to be so easy when i was young and strong but it’s so hard for me now because my life is gone i’m sick of the world

serf's up! 04:35
it’s ok if you’re not there no one’s really there it’s on your mind but you can’t share no one really cares we run in place but our feet get cold this is a private road and there’s a cop inside your phone and too much is never enough but spying is caring, so take your time buying is breathing, so get in line living is lying and i feel fine we’ve been coming down with something sleepy since the day we were born in this mall material pull keeps us looking material pull keeps us looking down you can’t have good times all the time, just most of the time I say we try and eat this because if we try and feed it we’ll find too much
5.
i’ve been drowning in piss for a life or two we always knew but sniffing it out is hard to do i’ve been lost in the woods climbing toilet trees we don’t agree but tearing it down’s OK with me i’m electric all the time so just shut me off and make up my mind either i’ll choke on my tongue or i’ll keep writing the same song this isn’t fun i’ve been drowning in piss for a life or two i know its hard to chew but i’ve been scaping this bowl since it all felt new it’s the end of us all but i hear it right the walls shake at night but the view from this gravy train is tight i’m electric all the time so just shut me off and make up my mind either they’ll choke on my tongue or i’ll keep writing the same song crushing deals with eyes on thirst its gonna hurt but everything is built on dirt and everybody falls sometimes so get over it it’s getting cold out there but we don’t think about it at all over here should’ve built to last but it’s all based on the past because we’re playing pretend so sing it again it’s getting cold out there but we don’t think about it at all over here should’ve built to last, it’s way too fast and they don’t think about anyone so what is to be done? well, I guess that all depends but we’ll pretend we’re a fucking gang and we don’t care
