about

This song is about how when you move to a city, you run into some brutal people. I've had up-until-sunrise conversations about feeling like maybe you're wrong because some big bozo insists on presenting themselves as right. That shit is so awful and poisonous.

lyrics

I'm completely in awe of some people in this city:
I have never known anyone to seem so unafraid
To be such a collosal fucking poser.

I don't give a shit
and I don't want to hear it.
Someday this tower of bullshit will collapse upon itself
and I don't even care if I'm around to see it happen.

Well they say you can fake it
until you maaaaaake it.
Until you're a big fake fuck
and you're the center of attention,
and any small bumps they'll be
absorbed by the suspension.
But that doesn't seem to be a goal worth reaching for.
And were it up to me...

I'd rather stay home
and I'd rather lock my door and I'd
rather spend my time trying to become
a person I think I could respect.
And I'd rather just admit that there are people who won't get it.
So I'll try to stay objective and I won't let it diminish
my resolve to avoid investing
my time in things that make me want to puke
Much of that which makes a person interesting
is just a measure of
how well they spend time alone.
