lyrics

This spectacle you call life
I’m not one of you people
you’ll make this country great again
while you see how unspectacular my decline is

this purgatory i’ve settled so easily in
these walls seem to protect me and so are yours
while crushing every single hope remaining

I lie, and so do you
you rise, and so is my depression
you succeed and I retreat
you win
great job
I’m a NEET
but I’m not one of you people

who would ever buy me
is this sad Walmart state of wake we call life
who would ever invest on me
you’re 25 years old and you’ve got your own start-up
while my Dreamcast is still mint and running

you spew truths and you’re the most honest among the just
while I bring shame on this great nation

this life is not worth watching
nor acting nor bothering
retreating in my pathetic little nest
chocking on anxiety and no meds are working

you’re the cure and you made that pretty clear
eradicate this angst from inside me
fill me with your truths and promises
don’t let me question anything
as it seems not to be working

I wish I were like you
full of shit and yet the most beloved
but I’m not one of you people
my existence is all that matters
my experience the solely true
all of you people nothing but projections of my superego
and this universe spawned for me

I’m the only one
seeing all of this
the world crumbling
annihilated by promises of wealth
unfit to exist I linger
is this sad Walmart state of wake we call life
and we keep telling ourselves
things will change
everything for the better
