lyrics

Welcome to the struggle,
We’ve got guilt and shame.
We’ve got everything you want,
Except a soul or a brain.
Walk with me into the mall,
And tell me what to believe.
When my back is against the wall
I try my best to cheat.

Tell me ‘bout your dreams baby,
I really wanna know.
In mine we’re going crazy,
Dying slow.

Well too much Coca-Cola will make your teeth fall out.
Another heap of sugar leaves sincerity in doubt.
Slap me in my smirking face, give me what I need.
Cause everything I want is void of honesty.

Tell me ‘bout your dreams baby,
I really ought to know.
The way you’re hiding lately,
Has me scared to watch the show.

Tell me ‘bout your dreams baby,
If they still exist.
I sleep so peacefully
But awake to abyss.

Well nothing makes me more upset
Than getting what I want.
I pretend to be a nervous wreck
Just because it’s fun.
Ain’t no one gonna figure me out
Cause I’m a million people at once.
Instead of sticking to the script
I flew straight at the sun.
And I died.
