lyrics

Grumble, gripe, yell, moan and fight
Thoughts in my head keep me up at night
Complain to myself, when there’s no one else
Acting out when I’m looking for some help

What if it’s true that everyone is evil?
The world is full of boring stupid people
Refreshing to say, but scary all the same
Having to deal with them every single day

Selfishness, everywhere you turn
Differences, we will never learn
But you've got your head up in the clouds
With apathetic thoughts that you say aloud

Place the blame you see, on complacency
Place the blame you see, on redundancy
Place the blame you see, on fallacy

Taking to heart the words that I speak
We’re just trying to make it through the week
Words and emotions, they strike a chord
Time from your mind is time you can’t afford

It would be better if we were all equals
Procreating genes, not releasing sequels
Compile your ideas accentuate your might
Go against the grain while putting up a fight

Selfishness, everywhere you turn
Differences, we will never learn
But you've got your head up in the clouds
With apathetic thoughts that you say aloud

Place the blame you see, on hypocrisy
Place the blame you see, on jealousy

This life is always full of strife
You can fight this blight with all your might
Or blame it on whatever you like
But your days will end without respite
My day to day just cannot stay
A life that's ruined and in dismay
So you may not like the things I say
But I choose to live my life this way.
