I’m not greeting anyone but my hands are shaking
And when I said it couldn’t hurt I must’ve been mistaken

I try to spark a conversation but it leads to the weather
I try to form an opinion but someone else says it better

Its hard to justify playing preacher to you
When I don’t have a clue myself, what can I do?

All this nonsense has got me thinking
Life’s a musical, and I’m lip syncing

I know what must be done but can’t find the time
Because meaningless tasks and distractions occupy my mind

I’m using my youth as a lousy excuse
To sit idly by Im tying myself a noose

The only thing I do is feed my addictions
But change seems strange when you afraid of your own convictions

I guess I’d have nothing to sing about if my life were perfect
But when I think about the future I just feel sick

Someone once told me:
There are 2 kinds kinds of people in this world
The blissfully ignorant and the dreadfully informed

Well I feel dreadfully ignorant I don’t know what’s worse
I also feel alive and inspire but sometimes it comes as a curse

My mind has made up it’s mind, my body feels the pull
But I feel helpless here and my fears are powerful

Knowledge is a burden, but a responsibility too
They fuel a raging fire inside me and you

But we try to dose that flame with a bottle of booze
Screamin “The world is so fucked up, we might as well be fucked up too”

***
Blood is thicker than water but this liquor is thicker still
If you wanna talk power struggles lets start with power of will

We use these booze as a crutch but it makes us fall over
I mumble when I’m drunk, but even worse when I’m sober

All I want is for everyone to have a good time
But I’m afraid were gonna burn out before we get our moment to shine


I know people are evil, they’ve destroyed the world and I hate it
But I can’t say I hate something without trying to change it

How can I say I hate everything, I’m surrounded by people I love
I mean that with all my heart, but I’m calling our bluff

I know were all worm food and this is all meaningless
We are a mutation on a hunk of rock floating in they abyss

Well let’s create our own meaning and cherish the beauty that’s left
Lets take advantage of this before we catch up with death

I can think of so many reasons to love your life
but I never have been one to take my own advice
