"The Day I Went Up To The Screen And Defeated My Self Pity"


Verse 1:
I'm not complaining anymore
What was I even queing for?
I've got my health and I've got good friends
And I've pushed them both to the bitter end
But things are never all right
And I choose to emphasize this plight

Chorus:
I want to know real pain too
I'll fake it 'til I make it
So someday I can feel like you

Verse 2:
There's an app for this and an app for that
But I want to see you, I want to connect
I'd throw away all these digital tools
But in ANY day & age It'd make me a fool
When I was living in Tokyo I felt so alive
Walking around with this sickness inside

Chorus

Verse 3:
My father supports what I do
An old school capitalist trying to make it too
You yell at your dad all the time
And we hardly fight, but he's still mine
Stories surrounded by smoke filled with regret
I always forgive and I always forget cuz...

Chorus
