Waiting for Death
I wanna die now
I wanna die
Does it really come as a surprise
Look me in my eyes do you despise
Me cause I wanna die
What's the view like after death I wonder
If it's even any better or if we're under
Exactly the same sky with just a different filter
Will it matter if I do things any different
Why should I try harder
Why should I work smarter
Everything's just a bore like o brother
All I do is sit and complain
We're all playing the same game
But I might as well level up
Under a billion different names
I go everywhere in my mind
And no where in real life
Why don't I mind it's like
I'm stuck in the same headlights
That I've been in front of since I was a child
Knowing I need to go the extra mile
But I can't move my feet
All I can do is write and the feelings bittersweet
I wanna die now
I wanna die
Does it really come as a surprise
Look me in my eyes do you despise me
Cause I wanna die
Is it your place to judge
I wanna join my loved ones
But I don't like the pain so I hold on to my name
Instead of watching it fade away
And leaving on an airplane
I wanna go so far away
Wishing something would make
Me wanna stay
But I can't keep putting on this facade
Stuck inside my box
Scratching my noggin wondering what is going on
Why is everything so confusing
Why can't I learn to use this
And be so profound
I'm craving making my own sound
But it's just white noise that I'm surrounded by
So I just sit and pick apart my life and that's why
Oh that's why
I wanna die now
I wanna die
Does it really come as a surprise
Look me in my eyes do you despise me
Cause I wanna die
