Apocalypse

Breathe in, it's 6am and I'm barely awake
Wipe off my dreams from the night before
And prepare for the day
When did I settle for something so plain?
All of this low-fat, no-mercy, this nine to five
When can I jump off this merry-go-round? (round, round)
Day in and day out

Welcome it, I'm home again and I'm halfway to sleeping
Mindless words to fill the void to stop myself weeping
What's the point in shedding tears, when nobody's listening?
Fight for yourself, free your mind, never stop looking
For all the evidence that you're alive (live, live)
You're alive

Don't tell me to smile when it's wrong
Cause the cracks in your porcelain are revealing
Don't tell me to fight for my rights
When you ostracize me for not conforming to your ideologies

Don't tell me to always be true
When you kick and stomp and slit the throats to get through
Don't tell me because, I don't care
About the colour that you package it
I know sometimes life is not fair

The smoke it lingers on my fingertips
It's calling me, pleading me back to the sound
Of the hardened strings and the ripped out lungs
That I leave behind in memory
And from the glow, I see the Sun and I'm smiling again

Don't waste your time feeling guilty for things that don't matter
Cause you deserve better move on (on, on)
Move on
