LYRICS:
I’m barely getting by
As the world implodes around me
Some days it’s hard to try
To stay afloat and keep from drowning
As a kid my teachers taught
“Be anything you want to be.”
“Grow up and get a job.”
“Contribute to society.”
But society is falling down.
The world outside is gonna be the death of me
And endless cesspool of sorrow and anxiety
I don’t care for fame and wealth, cause it can’t fix my mental health
So if you need me I’ll be sitting right here on the couch
Most days I do alright
Tune out the constant chaos
Really, I’m doing fine
No need to ask “Are you OK, John?”
I’ll just surround myself
With shiny things and fun distraction
Stay tucked inside my shell
It’s easier than taking action
Why should I go anywhere?
The world outside is gonna be the death of me
And endless cesspool of sorrow and anxiety
I don’t care for fame and wealth, cause it can’t fix my mental health
So if you need me I’ll be sitting right here on the couch
