lyrics

there's a system that comes with everything we're born with: how to make money, how to fake love and pretend just like we earned it. we can sit in these school walls and talk about their writings and we can restate information almost as if we learned something.
there's a ringing in my ears, but i can't see one on my finger. how could i grow up in a world where every false sensation lingers? it's the toll that my mind takes with the more that i know, but the point of life is to express myself so when they tell me to shut up, i don't.

i have to rationalize everything and think through my realities and i over think so much, i'm starting to think there's something wrong with me. maybe it's the lack of sleep, or just the absence of dreaming. i'm biting my pillow, waiting for it all to come to me.

i'll sit and stare blank, like my page, out of these windows as you preach all your beliefs and expect me to become hollow. my mind keeps changing with the time that i'm in, but this clock is smashed, it's broken, turning all of these songs second hand.

i have to rationalize everything and think through my realities and i over think so much, i'm starting to think there's something wrong with me. maybe it's the lack of sleep, or just the absence of dreaming. i'm biting my pillow, waiting for it all to come to me.

i'm staring at the ceiling every single day as i wonder my childhood away, i dance into dreams when i'm given a number and they take my name. these pills have too many side-effects, without doing what's on their bottles' necks. my stomach's still in knots, no matter how hard i try to untie it still sticks.

so all these bills burn down to nothingness, i wouldn't know the other side of it. it's time to learn to hate your friends and stand around and cope with it.
