lyrics

If the whole world was passive aggressive, Truman two would be salvation
Call it fallout, or what you will it's all gone to hell
And trust me I'm no better I might be the worst of it all
It's hard to move when I can't eat and I'm buried in an attitude of selfdefeat

This is the definition of insanity
My lungs, my throat are bleeding
Empty words, to an open sky
From a voice that I'm not sure is mine

I'd give anything to change
I'd throw it all away not to stay the same
I can't take another day
Of pushing everyone away.

Heads up, like Rivers and Dorset
But I always seem to forget
To let love in, that's just who I am.

Futility and repetition. The centerpiece of self-annihaltion.
