Lyrics

Cold War

[Verse 1]

I'm insane, so obsessed with all these goals

Try hard to not to ignore ya

Balanced as we go

On my brain twenty-four hours a day

The stress and paranoia

Balanced as I know

[Chorus]

It's a cold, cold war

Between the vain and valuable

I can't take it, I can't take it no more

It's a cold, cold war

Ask myself what I want more

Something lifeless or someone to adore?

I'm overzealous

[Verse 2]

I'm so bored, overworked up to the core

Need a tropical vacation

Not more medication

May our lives be as fabulous as gold

Like the pictures on our socials

Faking what we show

[Chorus]

It's a cold, cold war

Between the vain and valuable

I can't take it, I can't take it no more

It's a cold, cold war

Ask myself what I want more

Something lifeless or someone to adore?

I'm overzealous

Overzealous

Overzealous

Overzealous

Overzealous

[Bridge]

It's a cold, cold war

Between the vain and valuable

I can't take it, I can't take it no more

[Chorus]

It's a cold, cold war

Between the vain and valuable

I can't take it, I can't take it no more

It's a cold, cold war

Ask myself what I want more

Something lifeless or someone to adore?

I'm overzealous

I'm overzealous
