On Repeat

I glued my ears to the ground.
Now I’m deaf and it’s kind of a relief
I don’t wanna hear it.
My head’s all tired.
Save your breath.
You're on repeat.
I glued my ears to the ground.
Now I’m deaf and it’s kind of a relief
I don’t wanna hear it.
My head’s all tired.
Save your breath.
You're on repeat.
I’m staring at the sun
waiting to go blind.
I do believe I’ve seen enough.
The outside world is on repeat.
Glued my ears to the ground.
Now I’m deaf and it’s kind of a relief
I don’t wanna hear it.
My head’s all tired.
Save your breath.
You're on repeat.

Live Numb Die Bored

No one’s got a clue
of what we’re doing here at all.
On this pile of dirt we call our home,
where we navigate our bones.
The sickness is called sanity
and it’s eating us alive.
Don’t ask me for a how and why.
All I know’s that we’re not gonna
live numb, not gonna die bored.
Spit out onto this planet
Random time and place
Lucky to be alive
in the same spot at the same time.
Seven billion fools, stuck like me and you
And you bet they know what’s best for you.
Don’t listen to anyone.
Just Dream on
Dream on
I hope gravity
Never pulls you down.
Out into the unknown
until there’s nothing left to know.
If killing time’s our fate,
we’ll do it wisely.
We’re not gonna live numb,
not gonna die bored.

Work all day
Sleep all night
Always ahead of moon and sun.
Heading on your way up,
and I’m sure greed will get you far.
Run run run,
gather some more.
Sun up sun down.
Speak all day,
hardly say anything.
Everyone’s a waste of time.
Everyone’s just wasting time.
Move to the same and ever repeating drum.
Anything money can buy to make a life worth living.
Work all day,
sleep all night.
Sun up sun down.

Soil And Dust

No one knows the time and place
when your heart went missing.
Now that it’s gone, there's not much left
but a machine to push your blood.
Born with two good eyes so I can see,
and a heart so I feel.
Why is it that your hands can’t seem to get enough?
This world wasn’t built to carry all of us, just you,
and it’s barely big enough.
And in case you think about your place
in the endless depths of this universe,
you can rest assured.
You’ll fade away just like the rest of us.
In the end, soil and dust, like the rest of us.
