lyrics

the bottles stack up
in the corner on my bedroom floor
and im all out of ambition
i no longer care for this world
cuz the people are ugly
and they only care for themselves
so i stare into the distance
my mind just as blank as can be
cuz im all out of opinions
i gave up on those long ago
cuz nobody listens
until its already too late

everyones killing eachother
we're digging our graves where we stand
divided and angry
confused about who we should blame
the crooked politicians
or the racist cops flooding our streets
so we're burning all bridges
we're ripping out signs at their feet
cuz we're all out of patience
we've had all the shit we can take

with voices unheard, we scream from our windows
we scream til our faces turn blue

so i pick up a bottle
and scower as i light a match
and im all out of emotion
ive run out of things i can feel
so i fall into the darkness
of the hollow depths of my mind
cuz theres nothing i can do
to change the fact that this world is a mess
and im not far behind it
i destroy everything that i touch
but i keep on moving
i do this cuz i know that i must

with voices unheard, we scream from our window
we scream til our faces turn blue
worn down & withered, our breath drawing thin
i assure you, we'll make it through
