Stop trying, be nothing
Have your own mind, do your own thing.
Forget friends, forget dreams
Rip your expectations apart at the seams.
You don’t need to be anyone or anything.
You’re your own, you’re yourself.
You are nothing & you’re everything itself.
The light spills from the window & dances on your skin.
You are a story & I am the beginning.
Say those words to me, say them like you mean them.
Nothing like playing dead.
You’re the apple on top of my head.
So just keep still, i’m not holding my breath.
Light from the window, shines in the dusk glow
Skin cold as the snow, but softer & paler still.
You’ve been drinking, you’ve been drinking way too much.
I’ve been thinking, i’ve been thinking way too much.
Say those words to me, say them like you mean them.
Nothing like playing dead.
You’re the apple on top of my head.
So just keep still, i’m not holding my breath.
From the cold nights, to the big fights.
It’s worth it just so I can see you smile.
& that glint in your eye.
From the cold nights, to the big fights.
It’s worth it just so I can see you smile.
& that glint in your eye.

The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur
