"you look tired"
well thanks,
i believe it's how this country has me fucking wired
or maybe it's just the standard five to nine
that's a little too asinine
that makes me want to whine
perhaps it was the weed
im sure my therapist would've agreed
but actually it was the liquor
drowning my fears must've made me sicker
but that's alright cause I like to bicker
cause in fact i know it was society
it fed my insobriety
told me that it'd clear all my anxiety
then fucked me over and led me to piety
where i could be compliant
so it could use me then abuse me
and just stroll away scot-free
but in reality, it was my diet
i thought starving myself would make the voices go quiet
I was led to believe that being filled up on insecurity
that living in obscurity
while doing everything to protect your purity
was maturity
but that's ridiculous, it was the magazines
they said to be meticulous
they screamed how
no man would want to stay in a bed
with a woman who couldn't give proper head
so I practiced and played,
I thought that's what would make a guy stay
instead I think it just made them afraid
when I pass by they shame me and call me a whore,
as if they aren't the ones who gave me the advice before
my body in ruins
with a mind defective
my father cried and asked how could I do this
I said i followed everyone's words to reach eternal bliss
but that there was just a couple points i must've missed
but it's all okay,
ive asked about these things, ive inquired
but ever since i spoke up im undesirable
the government smiled and declared my case unjustifiable
then my boss called and told me I'm fired
so yes, i guess i really am just fucking tired
