Apocalypse

Breathe in, it's 6am and I'm barely awake Wipe off my dreams from the night before And prepare for the day When did I settle for something so plain? All of this low-fat, no-mercy, this nine to five When can I jump off this merry-go-round? (round, round) Day in and day out Welcome it, I'm home again and I'm half way to sleeping Mindless words just to fill the void to stop myself weeping What's the point in shedding tears, when nobody's listening? Fight for yourself, free your mind, never stop looking For all the evidence that you're alive (live, live) You're alive Don't tell me to smile when it's wrong Cause the cracks in your porcelain are revealing Don't tell me to fight for my rights When you ostracize me for not conforming to your ideologies Don't tell me to always be true When you kick and stomp and slit the throats to get through No, don't tell me because, I don't care About the colour that you package it I know sometimes life is not fair (everybody breathe, just decompress) The smoke it lingers on my fingertips It's calling me, pleading me back to the sound Of the hardened strings and the ripped out lungs That I leave behind in memory And from the glow, I see the sun and I'm smiling again Don't waste your time feeling guilty for things that don't matter Cause you deserve better move on (on, on) Move on
