I can’t believe that it’s yogurt
Maybe it’s make believe
But I’ve been seeing double lately
I can’t believe that it’s over
I’m preaching to myself
That I don’t need no one else
Feeling micromanaged
All my actions put under your microscope
Your watchful eye draining me of all my hope
Feeling hella damaged
At the butt-end of this cruel-ass joke
The shot I took hit me in my ego
See you later to the creases in my brain
Ironed out my issues yet I still feel the same
Slipping down the spiral’s easy so I try to refrain
And I guess I’d like to feel less empty
But you can’t have purpose without pain
You can’t choose who you fall in love with
You can’t choose to fall in love
You can’t choose to fall out of it
Bite your tongue when you’ve had enough
Feeling like a waste of life
And I should just give up
My teary eyes the vital sign
That I’ve had enough
Say goodbye to your grievance and your pain
Fighting through its concentration in my veins
Slipping down the spiral’s easy so I try to refrain
And I guess I’d like to feel less empty
But you can’t have purpose without pain
Make your peace with the beast you cannot tame
Lock the door throw the key protect our name
Slipping down the spiral’s easy so I try to refrain
And I guess I’d like to feel less empty
But you can’t have purpose without pain
Why am I trying
Why am I still putting up with this bullshit
Why am I crying
Why am I having such a hard time
Why am I trying
Why am I still putting up with this bullshit
Why am I crying
When I know I can easily get out of this

Taking off my jacket
Taking off my shoes
Oh, Crona
Wanna get some sleep
But I can’t ‘cause of you
Oh, Crona
Taking off my jacket
Taking off my shoes
Oh, Crona
Wanna get some sleep
But I can’t ‘cause of you
Oh, Crona

I can’t sleep
Too scared to dream
Might sip some tea
Play games on my PC
This nightmare
Is a waking dream
These visions of mine
Are not what they seem
It’s fight-o-clock with the spear bear
I’ve lost my sword this is unfair
You’re in for it now that’s the grass sword
You’re in for it now that’s the grass sword
They call me bad foot money
When I step in the street
Gotta get those money bags
As I wake up from my dream
I’ve lost my hero streak
Can’t remember a good deed
I’ll get your husband’s head back
And help a friend in need
It’s fight-o-clock with the spear bear
I’ve lost my sword this is unfair
You’re in for it now that’s the grass sword
You’re in for it now that’s the grass sword
You’re in for it now that’s the grass sword
You’re in for it now that’s the grass sword
You’re in for it now that’s the grass sword

I mean hell it’s like you’re dead
An unlocked door an open bed
And even if all I had
Was just a crack in the window
Of what’s going on in your head
Maybe I could understand
Why it’s so hard for you to part
With the hand that you’ve been dealt
I mean I’m sure you’ve tried
But you can’t do it by yourself
So move away if you think it helps
Be surrounded but by yourself
Hold your tongue on the last word
All this shit is just absurd
So fucking what it’s been some years
Is it worth your goddamn tears
Find the time to make sure it’s fine
But when it’s fixed you get left behind
Just because I don’t like all of your choices
Doesn’t mean I don’t love you
I’m feeling blessed to be left out of the loop for so long
I’m feeling desperate I don’t like this damn song
Fear of fighting with those with unconditioned love
It feels like zipping up a coat while wearing gloves (It’s hard)
Can you hear it beat it’s not that strong
‘Til death do us part I hope it doesn’t take that long
I was with you but now you’re gone
All these issues you can’t be wrong
I was with you but now you’re gone
All these issues you can’t be wrong
So come back home if you’re not too far gone
Introduced to me what I could not have seen
Being reprogrammed to hate myself
So come back home if you’re not too far gone
Introduced to me what I could not have seen
Being reprogrammed to hate myself
I saw what happened
I know how it goes
So I step back play Switzerland
The middle of the road
I didn’t want to have to burn that bridge
And end up just like her
But it’s over now for you it’s all worked out
So I say let that fucker burn

Why Bother

After all the time I’ve wasted
Trying to get by
I’ve found the things that I need
Have been here the whole time
This is all or nothing
I can’t be just a friend
Like pineapple on pizza
Some things just don’t blend
After all the time you’ve wasted
Misplacing your problems
You’re the cause of all of them
So why can’t you solve them
And even when you could’ve spoke
You remained silent
You’ve defined the fine line
Between love and violence
Why do I even bother
Where would I even start
How can I explain this to you
Who do you think you are
Where is this even going
When will it fall apart
Trusting you was my decision
I made with broken bones
Sticks and stones caused this condition
Oh my fuck I should have known
From where we were to where we are
I’ve learned to like the latter
Your words hold no weight
When the fight doesn’t matter
These thoughts inside of my head
Are starting to burn
Of all the things I’ve had to change
Now it’s your turn
Why do I even bother
Where would I even start
How can I explain this to you
Who do you think you are
Where is this even going
When will it fall apart
Trusting you was my decision
I made with broken bones
Sticks and stones caused this condition
Oh my fuck I should have known

It’s not your say
I like it this way
We’re not sure what’s to come tomorrow
So let me live out today
Sometimes I wonder if I could say
To you I love you since you burn my bouquets
This isn’t a democracy
It’s all fair to you but not for me
You cast your vote and then you leave
You are an alien you’re overseas
I know you don’t believe in me
I know you don’t believe in us or me
But can’t you try to see
That what we have is meant to be
We’re here to stay
In the same way
That you and her have stuck it out
For several decades
Sometimes I wonder if I could say
To you I love you since you burn my bouquets
Why can’t you just support me
Why can’t you just trust me this once
Can’t you just support me
Why can’t you just support this love
Can’t you just support me
Why can’t you just trust me this once
Can’t you just support me
Support this love
Support this love
Support this love
Support this love
Support this love
‘Cause you are you and I am me
I wish we wouldn’t fight ‘cause we’re family
It’s clear to see you can’t stop being you
And I to you can’t stop being stupid
I know the risks I know the drive
I’ve got the funds and I’ve got the time
But you can’t seem to accept that I’ve
Got something I will live to fight for
It’s not your say
I like it this way
We’re not sure what’s to come tomorrow
So let me live out today
Sometimes I wonder if I could say
To you I love you since you burn my bouquets
I love you still
I share your blood
Give you respect
Which to me you give none

I feel everything
But eventually
I feel nothing
I feel everything
But eventually
I feel nothing again
Climb the mountaintop
Feel the pressure drop
And my ears begin to pop
Nosedive into the next life
Headfirst into the riptide
My face hurts from smiling
My eyes burn from staring at the screen
My lungs ache from breathing so heavily
What's this feeling so heavenly
After the fall I'm coming back
Try my best to stay on track
So I let the fucking train run me over
I feel everything
But eventually
I feel nothing
I feel everything
But eventually
I feel nothing again
Climb the mountaintop
Feel the pressure drop
And my ears begin to pop
Nosedive into the next life
Headfirst into the riptide
Listen close the CD skips
Break it in half it's a permanent fix
Try to save the Princess Peach
Dumb-ass turtle keeps her out of reach
All my friends act like they're dead
Let their emotions fuck with their head
I cry in the face of adversity
I laugh in the face of death
I crumble if you get too close to me
And struggle to catch my breath
Paint it yellow
Gum on the window
Screaming oh hell no
I feel everything
But eventually
I feel nothing
I feel everything
But eventually
I feel nothing again

I’m used to the wool over my eyes
Another fucking problem in disguise
Close up the matchbook soak up the gas
Cross your fingers and take it back
It’s just an act
Goddamnit you’re not gonna die
You drink enough water
You’re gonna be fine
Let’s take a roadtrip to my garage
My dad’s unhappy we trashed the yard
There’s a ladder on the lawn
There’s a bottle by the bush
There’s a shoe up in the tree
I guess that’s all it took
Let’s take a roadtrip to somewhere far
Let’s pile into someone’s car
Splashing in the water
Gasping for air
Barely make it to the surface
Just glad that we are there
Goddamnit you’re not gonna die
You drink enough water
You’re gonna be fine
Take me away
Away from this mundane
I’ve been lost before
But I always find my way
Take me away
Away from this mundane
I’ve been lost before
But I always find my way
Back to you
Back to you
Back to you
Back to you
I’m used to the wool over my eyes
Another fucking problem in disguise

Fuck this melancholy
Fuck this mood
I wanna be less like me
And more like you
Another night up in my room
I wish that I could talk to you
I don’t have anything to say
Since I’ve wasted my whole day away
I’ve always been competitive
I’ve always gotta be the best at it
I find it hard to support my friends
When I’ll never be as good as them
So I’ll stay up on the internet
Stuck on youtube clips and reddit
You know I won’t wake up ‘til late
Missing the exam that I had to take
My parents ask if I’m depressed
I’m finding it hard to express
That although I’m not feeling my best
For the past decade I’ve been used to it
Fuck this melancholy
Fuck this mood
I wanna be less like me
And more like you
Fuck this melancholy
Fuck this mood
I wanna be less like me
And more like you
Last night I dreamt of you again
Woke up alone in my bed
Last night I drove numb again
The wind made me feel less dead
Fuck this melancholy
Fuck this mood
I wanna be less like me
And more like you
Fuck this melancholy
Fuck this mood
I wanna be less like me
And more like you
Fuck this melancholy
Fuck this mood
I wanna be less like me
And more like you

I wonder why I have to try
But in my mind a changing tide
Right at five to my surprise
The sun will rise with sherbet skies
Riding home with gumball skies
I’m not alone ‘cause you’re by my side
Coffee’s sublime I’m getting high
I’ll start to fly right through time
Crusty Eyes
Butterflies
Say goodbye
Start to drive
Crusty Eyes
Butterflies
Say goodbye
Start to drive
I don’t want to leave but I’ve got to go
I promised safety on icy roads
I start to slip to and fro
A spin a twist and into snow
Both of us had rattled bones
Almost shook my way into a ghost
Life and death weren’t juxtaposed
Polarred worlds on just one road
Crusty Eyes
Butterflies
Say goodbye
Start to drive
Crusty Eyes
Butterflies
Say goodbye
Start to drive
Crusty Eyes
(Fuck this melancholy)
Butterflies
(Fuck this mood)
Say goodbye
(I wanna be less like me)
Start to drive
(And more like you)
