I can no longer watch TV
|
Cause that shit really melts my brain
|
I think I'm what they call sensitive
|
And easily thrown off my game
|
|
All that bloodshed and pettiness
|
Just makes the world seem so insane
|
And I just feel drained
|
|
When I go to do my food shopping
|
And all I can see is the packaging
|
One big mountain of garbage
|
About to be happening
|
|
And I walk past my own self-loathing
|
Like I walk past animals in the zoo
|
Trying not to really see them
|
And the prison they didn't choose
|
|
If I should ever quit your spotlight
|
I hope you won't think me wrong
|
Says the poet to the moonlight
|
Says the singer to the song
|
|
It's enough just to stay upright
|
Upright in every single way
|
Pour your love into your children
|
Until there's nothing left to say
|
|
Pour your love into your children
|
Until there's nothing left to say
|
