Take a look at all the madness that surrounds us Making violence, keeping people full of distrust Do you remember when we used to truly fear death? The planets letting out its final breath But maybe it's what we deserve We’re set on digging our graves A tragedy for no return Help me make it make sense Ahhh, it's a fuckin apocalypse out here (Shit’s burning up, shit’s burning up) Ahhh, it's a fuckin apocalypse out here (Right here) Doomscroll, headline looking like a madlib What if we gave up all of our power to Aladdin? He'd probably want to have a massive carpet Now there's a war over the textile market But maybe it's what we deserve We're destined to the same fate our only choice is when How we spend our days, it doesn't matter in the end We'll make the same mistakes But never notice any trend (It's comin up) (At least we're dying on the shiniest rug) Ahhh, it's a fuckin apocalypse out here (Shit’s burning up, shit’s burning up) Ahhh, it's a fuckin apocalypse out here (Right here, right here, right here, right here) I can't keep count of the times we fucked this up (I don’t know how we’ll ever get in front of this) Mumford and his Sons were right for once (I don’t know how we’ll ever get in front of this) Pen and paper at my desk Pen and paper at my desk Maybe fleeting thoughts could make it to the next life I really don't think we're gonna make it out this time… Ahhh, it's a fuckin apocalypse out here (Shit’s burning up, we’re already gone, we’re already gone Ahhh, it's a fuckin apocalypse out here Ahhh, it's a fuckin apocalypse out here (Shit’s burning up, shit’s burning up, shit’s burning up) Ahhh, it's a fuckin apocalypse out here (Right here, right here, right here, right here)

I hoped that they would just fade away But they’re here The noise in my ear is just deafening It won’t clear The days get longer and I don't know what they bring Why am I here? I'm trying so hard to be seen But all I have are doubts They're keeping me around Just another doubt is keeping me around All I have are doubts, they’re keeping me around just another doubt, it’s just another doubt And you’re right, I cannot remember the light in me And this world, is captured in a cycle of lunacy What do we bring in this corrupted and distorted democracy? I'm thinking spring, the answers will all blossoms along the leaves But I keep having these doubts They're keeping me around Just another doubt is keeping me around All I have are doubts, they’re keeping me around just another doubt, it’s just another doubt And I'm stressed, I can’t find a reason to breathe again And I guess, I'll never see my dreams materialize And I can’t, I can’t remember feeling more apathy And I am, I'm running out of time to make it real …and all I have left is my delusion

I drove past this wreck on the side of the road And I text my friends saying “shit that blows” I dropped my phone and it smashed the screen Never bought a case, It wouldn’t happen to me I saw this man on the movie screen Needle in his arm, and he’s struggling to breathe I ponder outside with a smoke or three And thank God every day that it doesn’t happen to me Because all my choices are created with good intentions, without luck Why would I make the same mistakes that they did? You sound hysterical, you must be out to lunch Cuz things that happen to other people Won’t happen to me! I saw a kid who scraped his knee I thought “damn that sucks!”, that would never happen to me! I walked past this bum and he asked for change I’d simply make decisions that would lead to owning a place There’s a war on my phone, every town’s debris It’s a good thing I live in a first world country I heard about a guy that choked and died Shoulda held on longer, maybe next time don’t die? Skill issue… I know all these people had reasons Like comorbidities, and lack of funds But they also lack critical thinking I know the answers Just look up ‘How to Scrum’ Cuz things that happen to other people Won’t happen to me! {Hey man, some people get dealt the wrong hand There’s people out there struggling, just to make ends meet Can’t put food on the table, have to work two/three jobs to survive People get sick for no reason People get sent to war by leaders they didn’t even vote for People have terrible upbringings, and the trauma lead to mental illness and addictions, and not everyone has support systems And you’re not immune to statistics A fifth of the population experiences substance abuse disorder or addiction in their lives You can't control everything! You can't keep living like this!!!} That's cool but that would never ever happen to me Cuz things that happen to other people Won’t happen to me! (Penny for your thoughts, that's nice) (They paid the ultimate price) (It wouldn’t ever happen to me) (The lord wouldn't do that to me) Just another doubt, is keeping me around… All I have are doubts, they’re keeping me around… All I have are-

Descending miles above the ground A near nuclear exchange Far from the Sun, there's no fusion today And with time we only decay Three out of four leave the city intact A human error, parachute unpacked Now I’m lost in reality’s escape And what if I never find it? And what if I never find it? And what if all these worries… …and what if I never find it? And what if I never find it? And what if all these worries come to pass? What if I never find it? And what if everything I love belongs to the past and this anxiety I feel was meant to last? What if I never find it? And what if all these worries… What if all of this withers away, unfound? The anatomy of detonation The anatomy of detonation The anatomy of detonation Come find me buried Come find me buried And what if I never find it? And what if I never find it? And what if all these worries… And what if all these worries… And what if all this withers away? Come find me buried And what if all these worries come to pass, with or without me and do these words just wither away? without a sound..

We fight the battle chasing both our dreams You’re not the enemy we both agree (And so) You can’t keep blaming yourself (You know) Your future won’t write itself So don't be scared of me Ahhh, I want you to be free I want you to be free Ahhh, I want you to be free I don’t think that I am ready to go Please don’t ask me why Even if it’s good for me You worry people worry people worry Another lyric written in a hurry… (C’mon) How many more times will it take (Before) Anxiety feeds you to the lake So don't be scared of me Ahhh, I want you to be free I want you to be free Ahhh, I want you to be free (I don’t think that I am ready to go) Ahhh, I want you to be free (Please don’t ask me why) I want you to be free (Even if it’s good for me) I want you to be free

Find the meaning behind everything else for me My mind is rushing to fill gaps endlessly I miss the times I used to dream about counting sheep This winter hasn’t been kind to me mentally Keep stull lucid moment of clarity I want to see what you think transparently Shifting purpose too often, I admit I wrote a line but I can’t make sense of it We switch hands for roses And any meaning that proposes We switch hands for roses And any answers that proposes High hopes for a sudden epiphany Wouldn’t it be nice if I could see The only enemy is time and my energy Have you considered that you might need therapy? (Wait, that’s it?) Now keep still I forgot insincerity Is just my only defense against tragedy I lost control of my version of happiness Convinced life’s only meaning is work and progress We switch hands for roses And any meaning that proposes We switch hands for roses And any answers that proposes We switch hands for roses And any meaning that proposes We switch hands for roses And any answers that proposes (I lost my faith to live another good lie) (I lost my faith) (I lost my faith to live another good lie) (I lost my faith to live another good lie) We switch hands for roses We switch hands for roses (I lost my faith to live another good lie) (I lost my faith to live another good lie)

Another restless night Will it ever end? You’re sick of the panic, and so am I Close your eyes, and forget Cuz this fear is our composer, and we accept it’s us And this year is far from over, what’s with the utter rush? Maybe stop, remember, this anxiety… The feeling goes away And this attack on the sensory Just remember tomorrow you’ll be here {This feeling It’s a shadow, but not a burden It’s a reminder of why I carry this angst There’s always room to grow So come and flood my mind with this recurring pain And every worry, it pours just like an acid rain But that’s okay I just remember, remember, remember, remember, remember} Just remember tomorrow you’ll be here And this will clear This will clear…

I'm sick and tired of promises The contradictions I make to myself I think to me that it’ll be different this time But it’s a lie, you’re nowhere near the prize… Knock on my door The Moment steps in He sings to me, “You're not looking within.” “You're stuck up here, where worry defines every action” (And everyday is another wake up call) That's only reason to try So just drive, you’ve got all this time To be alive To find the meaning inside Oh, life is only half the prize Medium aside Don’t wanna die without knowing I must be showing a feeling to make it happen Thoughts aren't reality, you learned this the hard way How do you feel? (Like the world is over?) Have you been freed? (Are you finding closure?) You're stuck with me fading as you get older (Are you free, are you free?) That's fine That’s the present defined You'll grow to like it with time So just drive, you’ve got all this time To be alive To find the meaning inside, oh So just drive, you’ve got all this time To be alive To find the meaning inside Oh, life is only half the prize Medium aside Don’t wanna die without knowing I must be showing a feeling to make it happen Thoughts aren't reality, you learned this the hard way I must be showing a feeling to make it happen Thoughts aren't reality, you learned this the hard way I should be on my way But something’s making me stay I should be on my way But something’s making me stay Somebody tell me it’ll be okay Somebody tell me it’ll be okay Somebody tell me it’ll be okay (Something’s gotta change) Somebody tell me it’ll be okay Somebody tell me it’ll be okay You’re gonna be okay…

Now you’ve been running for so damn long Now you've been running for so damn long One of these days you’ll trade your atoms with Saturn Have you considered that you might not matter? Your meaning’s everywhere you weren’t Overthinking while your brother suffers Know what it means to be reciprocal lovers? Traded for the prize The road is bumpy but you wouldn't love it otherwise The road is bumpy but you wouldn't love it otherwise Are you still waiting for your life to get sadder? Have you considered this might not matter? Put down the pen, turn around, look what you have Friends and family who help you get right back on track Shelter, food, a loving soulmate bearing everything you lack Look at her smile Please help me back to her arms And guide me home Now guide me home (You’re already here) Please guide me home (You’re already here) Now guide me home (You’re already here) Please guide me home Please guide me home

Every day’s the same I chase another big idea, go to bed, wake up And hang my head in shame I could get used to feeling like this Or maybe find a balance (Pull my head above the covers) It’s been a choppy journey to fulfillment all because I used to want to be the best at everything that I tried Wore perfectionism as a mask, at times I was a massive ass I guess it’s the beginning of the end Is the meteor out to scorch you? Have they happened to you now? (Oh they did? Who woulda thought..) A battle in your head - speed up or slow down And maybe they were right, some hearts get broken tonight You might not be where I want but it's alright You're alive! You might not be where I want but I'm what you’re after tonight I’m picking up where you left off and coming home Hey! Is it real yet? A lot left to go in this drive Like the shit I have to learn through direct exposure But as I get older I find That deep down I just wanted to inspire not impress See I walk in a daze, pull me out of this place I don’t wanna feel broken, lost, or afraid I just wanna be amazed by things that I made Subtract 13 off my life if that’s what it takes It's not that simple, nice try You'll be back here in a week but it's in sight That's life, don't you cry You might not be where I want but it's alright You're alive! You might not be where I want but I’m what you’re after tonight I’m picking up where you left off and coming home You might not be where I want but I’m what you’re after tonight I’m picking up where you left off and coming home
