Manufacturing Discontent

Discarded a broken escape

Fortunate to be in this state

Firing on a boredom innate

Chewing on a ticking grenade

Listening to the comforting shade

Instinctive

I'm supporting a string of destructive habits

And fighting more that I care to admit

Crumbling from a sudden dead weight

Here lies me

Now what's the meaning

Oh won't you tell me

Now won't you tell me the point

I was trying to find myself

I wasn't looking for you

But you gave me the point

I was trying to kill myself

What else was I gonna do

I had a pretty good time

A long goodbye

Ascension to demise

A vow to break

A lesson for the wise

I was put here to survive

Why is your burden mine

Holding space for this

There's a place we must have missed

And they're open real late

And I believe that we should go as a consolation

But directions are unknown

Tonight would be the perfect time

For us to reach the peak

It takes a lot to try to care

The truth's below the surface

Beneath the deep

When you live on the thinnest air

And even condescension comes with a fee

Slow to care

Now you tell me the point

I was trying to find myself

I wasn't looking for you

But you gave me the point

I was trying to kill myself

What else was I gonna do

I had a pretty good time
