I'M Not Laughing Anymore
Maniac
3:02Obsessed with the power you didn't have in high school So you like to watch other people burn, and you think that you're so cool You draw the line, and you tell everyone to walk it But really you're nothing that you promised Leading others to a game you failed It's really just beyond the pale Lose yourself in willing lies And lose your ability to criticize You say you're the image of masculinity But your job is to get people to buy your complicity You claim to help but you make their problems worse It's easy to watch people die when your bosses own the hearse Pretending that you're someone you're not Hanging onto empty shock It's all a larp, or you're what you're not So pick your poison and take a shot (You're the one that caged the dove, you ain't got no christian love, now) I'm tired of all of this, I just wish you'd all stop acting like kids It's just incompetent disguise, I wish you'd all just stop the fuckin lying You're just attention beggars starting shit to go-getter, about people that you don't even like You should take your own advice and put your own head on a pike Show some spine? The only spineless one is you You hate yourself and so you abuse Think you're the lead? Well nobody needs Another worthless loser with demented dreams Nobody asked? Well it's all in the past Project all your problems to cover your ass You say you're "fucked over by modernity" But you're the problem, and you're a dying breed
