society lied
we are totally not fine
overly obsessed in our own assets
since we're all up each other's asses

'fuck your feelings
focus on me
since truth will help your healing
i'll be so honest you'll be screaming'

and love won't save you
weaving lies through
your brain since we're nicely insane
and don't we love being the same

just replicas walking
clones keep on talking
about the same pointless paintings
you should colour in your own hate

since you're so full of yourself
everyone stacking up on their shelves
nowadays everyone's a star shining
despite their lack of light

and love is a drug
get so addicted
only to become convinced you are convicted
of a crime that never existed

and love will fail you
as your head's so stubborn
since you believe it's your only hope
your strangely shaped safety rope

and oh! throw me off a cliff
just for the hell of it
since you like your drama smoking rich
won't you enjoy the thrill of it

enhance your dirty lies
you can save your sharp replies
for someone who will be so selfless
they'll give themself without a care

and understand the consequences
of a society that's so entranced
in the love that doesn't exist
that's supposed to save all the sadists

wake up from your bliss
and take a look at all the pissed
people rioting, cause they're so exhausted
the stress makes us so nauseous

the irony isn't yours
in the fatally soaked words
so stop your backwards whispers
behind those who cannot differ

and if we're all just two and three
i suppose
you shouldn't be so keen
on
working with a team
that you hated
since you were seventeen

but i mean

go off i guess
just please be my guest
since i don't really care
i swear
