When everybody that you love
Up and goes to the next room
Leaving you alone,
And all you can do is question your cognitive abilities
You really should've seen this coming from a mile away
It was clear as day
So maybe your parents fucked up raising you
Or maybe existence really wasn't meant for you
Or maybe everything you've ever done was never supposed to be done by you
And maybe you can't hold a conversation as well as your buddy Matt
Or as well as anybody else that you've ever met,
And honestly it's probably just all in your head
Yeah it's all in your head!
Or maybe everything you struggle with is just a social construct
Just a silly concept ,
You'll stick you head in the sand
As these pretentious philosophies sweep you off your feet
Toss you to the night sky
Where everything's alright
Yeah everything's alright
Where nothing really matters
And nothing that you've ever done
That makes you feel incompetent
Really even makes you all that incompetent
Because that's just a concept that doesn't have to exist
You're a pretentious prick
And it's alright
It's alright, it's alright
Yeah you're alright

Nothing seems to change
And I just can't be bothered
To crawl back through the mud
Calling out your name
I guess you haven't changed
Cause you just can't be bothered
To tell me the truth
You've never had it in you
Yeah nothing seems to change
And I just can't be bothered
To crawl back through the mud
Calling out your name
Cause I've got my favorite pants on
And I just can't be bothered to dirty them for you

Caterpillar or sawfly
Doesn't matter what you call it
All I know is that I saw this thing
Crawling around my bedroom floor
For a contiuous 14 days
The tree outside my window
Gradually extended through
At the expense of the energy it takes for me
To bring the leaves inside
So this caterpillar can eat its way through the nights
As I watched this thing survive
I knew the day was coming
In about 20 days this larvae
Would make itself at home
In the chrysalis stage
Of its very short time alive
It spun its new cocoon
And nestled up inside it
Waiting for its time
To spread its wings
Become a butterfly
And see the better side of life
But when it happened
I really wasn't ready
As my eyes witnessed a friend of mine
Achieve his greatest goal
He was free from all the burdens
Tirin' his little legs out
And soon enough, he will die
But he still felt the greatest happiness
That he could ever dream of
And that is all
Any of us
Could ever really dream of
Isn't it?

About a month ago I
Told my friends that I
Was making plans to
Go off the deep end.
Yet here I am,
At the edge of the same bed.
I haven't moved, I haven't learned.
I haven't lost, I haven't earned.
I just inhabit
[The vacancies
Forming caverns
Inside of me.]
