The Flame
Chelsea Explains
2:59Sipping your latte oh look at you Not a thought in your mind about the coup You've got memes to post and texts to send Doesn't occur to you that this is the end I would kill To be that chill Or better yet To have hope still I know you know That it's not great But when you wake up It will be too late Oh I'm so jealous of your bubble When I see the future I see rubble Must be nice to be so selectively blind While the rest of us are losing our minds I'm so jealous of your blissful ignorance Your talent for avoiding all the evidence You're living in a sitcom I'm in a dystopian play I'm crashing out you go about your day Oh I wish I could be dumb but I'm not I can see all the foreshadowing in the plot I see the cracks in your American dream but it's totally not killing me Everything is chill You're cooking dinner chickens breaded While the Constitution's getting shredded But who needs bodily autonomy right?

Nah that's just a TV show The grid would never fully blow Keep laughing keep shopping keep looking away You think I'm dramatic I think you're insane But with every headline and crashing plane I get more jealous of your brain So keep laughing keep scrolling keep living your life Who cares about hunger violence and rights? I'll just be here screaming into the void While you frolic around the world you've destroyed Oh I wish I could be so blind but I'm not You hope for good weather I hope he gets
