Do you ever wonder why you’re wondering
Keeping yourself calm instead of slaughtering
Every bridge, every person, every connection
Denying happiness to avoid rejection
To only bring upon yourself that rejection
Hating your own reflection
Staring at the mirror asking why
Why everyone you love has to die
Why everything you know will be irrelevant
Thoughts flowing in my head so unpleasant
Someday everything you worked for is gone
Someday on this earth you won’t belong
Man, it doesn’t even seem like it’ll be long
Who knows when our time will be gone
Do you ever think about our capability to think
Crazy how life can end in just a blink
Don’t think about why I’m thinking I just drink
Drink until I can’t think so I sit back and sink
Into a coma or into a chair
Either way it goes this life will never be fair
But I wake up everyday trying to try
Trying to avoid toxicity so I don’t have cry
Is there a difference between intoxication
And taking a life long vacation
Do you ever cry until you can’t form tears
Ask how you’ve let yourself waste these years
With fake people fake love and bad memories
Let’s have kids to carry on our tragic legacy
The human race should already be extinct
Remember when we all thought we’re unique
But nowadays everyone’s the same
And it’s getting kinda lame
Does anyone even think about anyone else
Feels like everyone only thinks about themself
So do you ever think
About what other people think
About how that’d make someone feel
I just wish that everyone was real
Do you ever ponder about life’s meaning
Besides all the sadness death and bleeding
The joy, the laughter, and even the love
Do you really think there’s a place up above
I hope there is, and I hope you made it
