Tell me, have you ever known a moment of peace?
I close my eyes to simulate what it's like to simply be.
But all I see is armaggeddon, in the end when we're all dead and nothing matters. If me and all my friends are so unhappy, is happiness what we're really even after?
I know what's right, but I can't keep my head straight. All my life I've been afraid. But all I do is take steps backwards, or at best maintain destructive patterns. If me and all my friends are so unhappy, is happiness what we're really even after?
So what, it's all meaningless. I'm still hungry, broke and depressed. So what, if I'm nothing when I'm dead. I'm still something in my head.
