how you see yourselves

I rise with weary eyes and pretend it’s a world worth facing – sometimes I empathize, most days it just seems degrading – it’s the same routine each day, it tends to wear me down - I try to close my eyes, escape from here and go calm down –

I try to close my eyes and pretend that I’m just dreaming - but the world’s just too fucked up – at some point I just stopped believing – all the propaganda and trash – doled out, spoon fed each day – for all the mindless masses – self obsessed unknowing slaves –

make it all slow down, make it all slow down –

I try to close my eyes and pretend that no one’s near me – but when I sober up I realize that I’m not dreaming – this world’s a total disgrace – we watched it go hell – our stagnant population lives to buy and sell –

it’s time we all woke up – look past our padded cells – is this what you want? – is this how you see yourselves? – I try to close my eyes – pretend that I’m just dreaming – but the world’s just too fucked up – at some point I just stopped believing - I wish they’d all go away - I wish they’d leave me alone – I try to close my eyes but the voice inside my head won’t go (make it all slow down) –

I wish they’d all go away - I wish they’d leave me alone – I try to close my eyes but the voice inside my head won’t go

(make it all slow down) –
make it all slow down –

I rise with weary eyes and pretend it’s a world worth facing – sometimes I empathize, most days it just seems degrading – it’s the same routine each day, it tends to wear me down - escape from here and go calm down
