Today just feels like a wasted day
Wrote a song but crumpled the page
Bought smokes with scrounged up change
Walked down the street and thought about the way
Maybe I’m just at that age
Every place feels like a cage
I can feel this pressing weight
Of a world full of worry, in the vacant age
I just can’t see
How anyone would wanna live this way
Maybe I’m just at that age
But I don’t think I’m ever gonna change
Gotta find an outlet for that rage
Or I’m likely to combust
Which voice in my head should I trust?
Just because I scream
I know that doesn’t mean
My words are getting through
To any of you
I hope the world isn’t what it seem
All I can do is dream
Because the future’s looking bleak
Our vision is blurry and our wills are weak
We follow rules we swear that we hate
We destroy faster than we create
We know things are wrong
But we duck our heads and carry on
We build it up just to tear it all down
We can do something great but I have my doubts
Because our mind are corrupt
And it seems like people have given up
We’re all planning our escape route
Looking for a way out
Of this cylcle of these slums
But our get away driver never comes
Were all ready to start new
But we’ve got to pay our dues
So we accept what we’ve become
Talk about “someday” but it never comes
Got a bunch of junk mail for every letter that I sent
A pile of plastic for the money that I spent
This is not the way for me
So just stay away from me
I wish I had one response to the letters that I sent
Something to show for the time that I spent
Thinking of what to do
Instead of standing up and starting to move
