lyrics

Oh, hell
Don’t tell me anymore
Don’t tell me anymore
Don’t tell me anymore
What you need
Cause you need
A purpose
A service
A person and I know
You’re always acting bored
You’re always acting bored
Like everything’s a chore
Cause you feel
Encouraged
Deserving
And worth it

Picking flowers by your tombstone
You died some time back when we shared a
room
Some first world problems made you too bold
I’ll talk about you to my friends
And boast

And tell them all the shit that you’d do
A sacred thing you punched
It bled out
You played your part so well
A dead mouse
I think I’d rather you not stick around

I think I’d rather see you wave from the crowd
You look much better when I can’t see you now
So put together when you can’t be found
I think I’d rather you just see yourself out

Oh Well
Don’t tell me anymore
Don’t tell me anymore
Don’t tell me anymore
What you need
Cause you need
A purpose
A service
A person and I know
You already are bored
You’re always acting bored
Like everything’s a chore
Cause you feel
Encouraged
Deserving
And worth it
