lyrics

Here pretends
A severance of worth as viewed by tenants
of income, darling, stupid day job
Repress fate for wage sake
Slut shame for boy fake
and finance the need for a quick escape

Only pining for the piety of someone stepping down
Relegate yourself to nothing but a set of proper nouns
and you will make your namesake on waiting
‘cuz patience is in the hole with most of us

Wait life for rebate

(Impress mate for friends’ sake
Touch girl you won’t date)
Repress dreams for home safe
Wait life for rebate

What you want is what you make
What you need is what you hate

Backwards, forwards, sum of nothing
Shame the ones out trying something

Are you not tired of this age?
Trading life for love
It’s something we’re above
So quit your job and get your kicks
You’ll get answers when you find
that being human’s not enough
but it’s all you know
when the Western blues won’t let you go

(Will you screw off?)
