lyrics

I’ve up in the sky like a bird or a plane or a…
umm
rocket falling from grace
if there’s divinity in this situation I just can't taste it
and I'll face it I was elated but stayed basic
like 6 years wasted getting faded on a daily basis
really wasn't worth it but it helped me learn
that even if there is a path you have to give yourself a purpose


because you’re my sister you’re my brother
and I’ve never been above a single one of you
or vice versa
the earth hurts the worst when curse words
encourage the urge to murder innocent laughter
and I’ve been chomping at the bit to watch
every last bigot's thoughts get straight shattered
and after we pass event horizon
captain of the ship arises from the ocean grave and lays
down his plan to save the slaves of vice
with no disguise
curtain torn and thunder cracks the whip
to break the lack of faith
and open up these doubtful eyes
no supplies needed where we're going I’m hoping to realign my spine
with the promise that I’ve been holding onto for dear life

yes I do get lost sometimes
yes I want to stay lost sometimes
I’m fine
Yeah
so fine

dear life, I hope you last long enough
for me to find an answer and feel fine
before I die

forget the pride, stay kind

eliminating egos
I’m living it up with nothing but the
peaceful presence of other people
and trying harder to stay legal
we need an arbiter for the masses
if we want to see the planet in a sequel

and compromising doesn't make a situation equal
if there’s an evil still creeping in the shadows I will challenge it
to a battle of wits and toss it off the top of the steeple
just to see if it can mingle with the eagles
eager to dine with the devil
embellishing hell with the Beatles still stuck in my head right?
Beetlejuice thrice, never better off red dead redemption right?
Dead Wrong, Hits From the Bong, and Junior Gong
no longer on heavy rotation
but I don't regret relation to the songs

used to listen to them all night long
got used getting stoned till I couldn't stay calm
and wanted to call my mom
and tell her that I was wrong
about the universe
and the source of my social issues
I’ll gobble down a goblet of guilt
while I’m living recluse

and I’ve been living like a recluse

yes I do get lost sometimes
yes I want to stay lost sometimes
I’m fine
Yeah
so fine

since that day
I measure my success
With the amount of notebooks that I fill
Relieve my stress by imaging I’m not real
I’ll eat the purple pill
I want a little bit of both
But hope sinks
When you drink to beat the thought of death
(crush stress, crush stress, crush stress)
I don’t wash my clothes until they start to smell
Half the time that I’m alive
I think I do believe in hell
But the other half I’m apathetic and happy
So what does that mean?
