Inspired by people I’m happy to not be around anymore.
lyrics
I wish I could slip away
Into another world free from all the hate
Into another skin free from all this guilt
Into another time from the mess we've made
Cause when I look at the streets all I see is fake
And everytime I speak I’m looking over my shoulder
I’m pushing my luck every time I wake up
When I look at the TV all I see is makeup
When I look in your heart
You wanna save the world and man I wish I could relate
But all you have is hate, but all you have is hate
You’re 21 years old, you think you know what life's about
You think your eyes are open, but it’s only your mouth
Do you think we could have a break?
Let’s go for a walk down memory lane
Remember how the world felt when you were born
How beautiful it is to be alive at all
Now everytime you speak I hear is pain
When I look in your eyes all I see is shame
When I look at my phone it’s all the same
Everybody looking for someone to blame
Well look into your heart
You call yourself a hippie but you just mean hypocrite
You speak before you think, you speak before you think
You wanna save the world but all you do is drag it down
You think your eyes are open but it’s really just your mouth
Momma told me that life is what I make of it
My momme told me that life is what I make of it
People destroy what they love
People become what they hate
People destroy what they love
I'm scared to become what I hate
