1.
I lay in my bed and stare up at the ceiling The contents of my mind laid out in front of me Your face is contained in the mix I frantically search for a way to fix my head But all bets are off once I fall asleep Nothing will ever stand in my way It repeats itself so many times I find it comforting To know I'm alone in this Along with everyone else And there's nothing you can say That will save us from ourselves The only thing I hate more than being alone Is myself
2.
The universe called my bluff and now I'm fucked I'm sick and tired, I've had enough I want to go back to when I was young Free from the responsibility that's sucking the life out of me I'm finding it hard to breathe underneath Everything that I can't believe or see Trust me when I say that It really fucking sucks to be me Today was the last day of the rest of my life And I want to die, I want to die, I want to die, I hope I die I want to die, I want to die, I want to die, I want to fucking die *I took a cue from my [siblings] to get the hell out of dodge *A better set up at home, but my heart's thick in the fog *I know I don't want a phone or machine, or you calling me *I want to stay gone, and witness you all suffer from this disease *Scrap the digital cameras and then put seeds in your planters *Create something more hopeful than what I read on your wall *I've got a fond thing for a natural human bonding *But this other form of mankind is nothing I would buy into *Verse taken from Drawn To Isolation by The Stupid Stupid Henchmen

I lost my faith in humanity I lost my faith in fucking everything And don't tell me that I don't understand Because I've fine-tuned my reasoning and comprehension So point your finger in another direction I won't take the blame for someone else's decision The reason behind why I feel this way About the world's sad state of affairs It can only go on for so long Before we all end up in this hole that we've dug for ourselves It's really none of my concern, since I've already come to terms With enduring hell as consequence of guilt by association with the human race I lost my patience for intolerance These days, the tolerant are just as intolerable I often wonder where it all went wrong Making both sides of the argument completely unbearable But I keep moving forward, despite the negative attention Hoping that one day this shit will just end Leaving us with just the right balance Of being loved and fucking off I lost my faith in humanity But it's hard to say if I had any faith in the first place It comes and goes like a bad case of herpes That breaks out on my face, I lean in for a kiss You slap me and I immediately awake To the realization that everything I thought was just a dream Now I'm stuck with this idea that life is just shit And I should wait for the happiest moment When I'm fucking done with it
4.
I could've sworn my grip would've never slipped But now we're both eating shit, pretending it never happened Not to sound too cynical But I hate everything, everywhere, all the time And this song is just another thing on the never-ending list Of things that I regret doing in my life We had the chance, we blew it We fucked up and we knew it The time that was lost is never coming back We were aware, refusing To attempt, confusing these feelings With death lending us it's helping hand I've tried my best but I'm still the worst I can't quite find the words To say to make everything okay
5.
I know I drink too much And I say things that I shouldn't much And I do things that contradict my very existence I think I've lost touch With the world, which isn't saying much With the ones I love, I've had enough Of the bullshit games and fucking up I need to take responsibility But I know I won't Because this anger and depression Has rolled itself into a nice, neat, little ball And taken residence Inside my heart and inside my head I'm starting to think that there's nothing I can do about it Because this anger and depression Comes and goes as it pleases I don't know if you exist, but I'm asking you, Jesus Can you lend me a hand, get this out of my head I promise to cherish life and stop praying for death I've used alcohol as a crutch It's starting to break under the weight, I don't think it'll take much more Before I end up on the floor, trampled by the anxiety Of facing my feelings and fears in sobriety And to make matters worse, I feel that I have been cursed With the helping hand of the unseen, of the unheard That's keeping me alive, despite my feelings that I have inside Of my surroundings and everything that's causing
6.
Awkward situations followed by awkward hugs And these bullshit conversations take what little air is left inside my Nothing but I'm writing like I've had too much to drink Letting go of what we’ve lost, come to terms with how you think of me And I love what you’ve done You've cut off ties, you turned and run You built me up to take your fall You led us straight into a wall And I'll say I personally think its too cold to have the windows open But you wanna smoke your menthol cigarette And I personally think its too cold to have the windows open But you wanna smoke your menthol cigarette You might be leading now but there is no way you could ever win When you have absolutely no control over any of the situations that you put yourself in And I wish I could pretend to be All of the things you think you see in me But I am not that guy, that guy just left He had his collar up and there was smoke on his breath And we have these parties for the way it was But once the booze is gone is it worth the buzz? Because I've got some problems and I'm talking loud And all your friends are here so word will get out That I personally think its too cold to have the windows open But you wanna smoke your menthol cigarettes And I personally think its too cold to have the windows open But you wanna smoke your menthol cigarettes
