lyrics

I've got to finish this today
Cause otherwise it'll symbolize
The failure of myself
But is the self a real thing?
I think, "I think therefore I am,"
And yet that can right there, it is,
and it doesn't think at all
It just used to hold a beer

A drink can feel good,
To drink feels better than to be,
Cause to be is not to make,
And all of art is just a fake
Silly replica of life,
But is life a real thing?
Or an illusion caused by spring
Because the sun, its angle changed?

I ought to take on the issues of the day
Cause we're all under attack
And to care is just to say,
Or so you'd think, because we all,
All of us just like to talk
Cause we don't know what else to do
So we perform, we're at the zoo
We're only animals, you know,
Our instincts ancient but we're young
We make plans to fix it all
But we're dead before they're done
We've all got problems,
Some are bigger than I can dream
I hear we're all one, or are we?

So I live inside a life
I ride a board with wheels
It doesn't change a thing at all
I just like the way it feels
Should I be doing something else?
Is the world I have too small?
I love people, it feels big,
But is love a real thing?

We're just a brain inside a skull
On a body that will die,
Why do I even try?
Cause if you don't, then you're depressed.
The universe expands.
With every inch it grows, I guess
I'm the same, and yet I am
Smaller by comparison
