Each morning I wake up And I make myself some coffee Drink down the blackness to shake off my bad dreams I won’t let the mood set in, won't let it steep I'm lucky to feel anything In the age of the screens Turn on the tele for my dose of brain candy Flip on the news for my does of brain brandy The news today doesn't seem all that new anyway In the blink of an eye, we'll all die - least that's what they always say CHORUS So lace up your shoes And turn your brain on Show the world your love Before what we got is all gone I may be crying But laughing sounds all the same The world may be dying But I’m sure we’ll all be okay And I hope that my spirit doesn't drown in the drama Like that microcosm shit, like you forgot a fucking comma I've found the only way to survive this raging fire Is to make your whole life one big fucking satire I know it's a privilege to breathe this clean air But if that's a fucking privilege then our rights don't means shit in deciding what's even fair CHORUS So bridge gaps with your enemies And dance without fame Give meaning to your life Before we all go insane I may be crying But laughing sounds all the same The world may be dying But I’m sure, yes I’m sure that we'll all be okay Aaaayyyyy aaaayyyyy ayyyyyyy

now we can say it we've been through hell and back nearly lost my shit along the way but at least my soul's intact tales of the body snatchers and demons they are true but I never expected to have to keep a special eye out for you I once knew your soul but you're a stranger to me now a summer flower unfolds and drifts away in the crowd these days winds blow out of control and all the chemicals and capitalist roles make us weak I tried my best but it was damn sure you weren't trying for me oh-- and since I left old man years and years leaves movies at my feet each one makes me miss you more as it plays back our memories so I've stopped watching and learned how to navigate without you the hell-gates are flooding open but I've chosen another route well I once knew your soul but you're a stranger to me now a summer flower unfolds and dissipates in the ground these days winds blow out of control and all the chemicals and capitalist roles make us weak I tried my best but I'm just glad I got over your peak these days winds blow out of control and all the chemicals and capitalist roles make us weak I tried my best but it was damn sure you weren't trying for me oh--

Lately I feel like it's hard to be human You look at me as though I was made for your consuming I don't come as an order and I don't sit on a plate And yet the restaurants are open and the hungry mouths salivate I'm not here to satiate you, I'm not here to be alone I want something better but you only throw me bones I ain't your dog and you ain't my kind Is the human in me really that hard to find? Chorus I've been thinking about isolating myself I've been thinking about isolating myself I've been dreaming of valleys, warms rocks, and streams I've been dreaming to get out of your dreams Do you feel the rush of blood coursing through your veins? Do you feel your heart beat so loud it cannot be contained? You've got your titles, your guts, and your desires Our lives, they burn away, are you frightened by the fire? You make assumptions that all my time is yours. You can keep on pushing baby, but you'll never break down my doors. And once the clock has ticked to your last final tock You'll realize you did all this running baby, but you never left your own block Chorus I've been thinking about isolating myself I've been thinking about isolating myself I've been dreaming of valleys, warms rocks, and streams I've been dreaming to get out of your dreams
