I'm never gonna be on the radio. You're never gonna hear this song on your car stereo on the drive home. I don't care, I don't care, I don't care if nobody ever hears this song. I don't care, I don't care, I don't care if nobody ever sings along. I'm never gonna play a sold-out arena show. If MTV still played music they'd never play my videos. I don't care, I don't care, I don't care if nobody ever hears this song. I don't care, I don't care, I don't care if nobody ever sings along. I don't care, I don't care, I don't care if nobody ever hears this song. I don't care, I don't care, I don't care if nobody ever sings along.

buy more shit to fill your life; buy your friends buy a wife buy a house; fill it up to the brim so you can't fit in life is empty like a gaping hole; fill it in and sell your soul replace it with the newest toys; shiny knobs and electric noice gadgets replace your family; it's what's good for the economy sweatshop labor disposable; wage slavery is now acceptable buy more shit to fill your life; buy your friends buy a wife buy a house; fill it up to the brim so you can't fit in fill your life with gourmet food; your social status has improved living simply, living pure; consumption is the only cure all sales final, please act now; three low payments ask me how layaway at the five-and-dime; call ahead and skip the line buy more shit to fill your life; buy your friends buy a wife buy a house; fill it up to the brim so you can't fit in define yourself by what you spend; fill your life with crippling debt saving money means working hard; for everything else there's mastercard buy more shit to fill your life; buy your friends buy a wife buy a house; fill it up to the brim so you can't fit in

(gentle soft cooing) if you're wondering where I am check the basement that's where I go to be alone if you brought something leave it on the front step if you wanted to see me you should go home i don't want anybody to worry; i don't want you to know i don't want anybody to see me; i don't want you to know (gentle soft cooing) if you're wondering where I am I just want to be alone if you're wondering where I am you should just go home i don't want anybody to worry; i don't want you to know i don't want anybody to see me; i don't want you to know (gentle soft cooing)

you live your life and I'll live mine if I even want to live this time my choices are not your party line if we mess it up that's fine I can hear them judging me tonight flaws lit starkly in fading light I offer you a drag and you offer me your one size fits all advice whatever helps you sleep at night you live your life and I'll live mine if I even want to live this time my choices are not your party line if we mess it up that's fine so don't tell me how you had it figured out by my age I don't want your picture perfect life maybe you've got some insecurities or you want to live vicariously whatever helps you sleep at night you live your life and I'll live mine if I even want to live this time my choices are not your party line if we mess it up that's fine you live your life and I'll live mine if I even want to live this time my choices are not your party line if we mess it up that's fine

I don't think I have the energy to do the things I need to crumbling under responsibility I feel so worthless I just want to sleep all day I just want to sleep all day and watch the tatters of my life blow away I think I'm turning into my cat I think I'm turning into my cat I can't remember the last time I felt a friendly touch probably because I don't let you get close to me I can't let my guard down I can't let my guard down you're always trying to break in I'll just find someplace to hide I think I'm turning into my cat I think I'm turning into my cat I think I'm turning into my cat I think I'm turning into my cat

the click the whir the grinding of gears the feeble spray of dust into the bucket I guess that's why the sign in front of my eyes says out of order in this seedy motel with no one I know and nothing to do I guess it's not the only thing out of order here no ice no noise no idea what I'm doing here no ice no noise no idea why I'm here I look around at my surroundings I gauge the scene peeling paint and faded numbers number my new company my barefoot footsteps echo on this filthy linoleum floor what did I do what mistakes led me here no ice no noise no idea what I'm doing here no ice no noise no idea why I'm here maybe I should take this sign and wear it on my neck like an albatross maybe I should take this sign and wear it on my neck like an albatross no ice no noise no idea what I'm doing here no ice no noise no idea why I'm here

I don't know what's going on because I don't want to think about myself & I don't care what anyone says I'm too busy dealing with what's in my head & you know it's getting to be too much too take & you know I don't know when I'll finally break I don't feel like going outside because I don't want to share how I feel inside & I hate the way I feel all the time & I can't remember when I ever felt fine & you know it's getting to be too much too take & you know I don't know when I'll finally break & you know it's getting to be too much too take & you know I don't know when I'll finally break

I always thought my life was meaningless waiting to find something else from somewhere else but now I know that it's an empty room and there's nothing here you didn't bring yourself What will you do with yourself if you ever do something with yourself What will you do with yourself if you ever do something with yourself I never took responsibility blaming my faults on something else on someone else but now I see that I have agency to turn myself into the self I want How will you help yourself if you ever want to help yourself How will you help yourself if you even want to help yourself What will you do with yourself if you ever do something with yourself What will you do with yourself if you ever do something with yourself

every day I hear you say "don't even try you'll fuck it up" out of luck slightly fucked maybe I should give it up but I keep trying to to spite myself I'll keep fighting to prove you wrong I fucked it up once again maybe this will be the end were you right to doubt me maybe I'm just dumb but I keep trying to to spite myself I'll keep fighting to prove you wrong but I keep trying to to spite myself I'll keep fighting to prove you wrong
