lyrics

I’ve had my share swimming through the muscles and bones
Telling me they can’t find one true home
You can say I’ve planted this farm for myself
But nothing will defuse this bombshell

We’re having Fake funerals
When you haven’t died
Quote yourself on how
Your brain is fried
Grabbing folks and then some more
Feed all of their mind galore
Just to end up on your kitchen floor

The same hollow person that I’ve always been
I’m not sure if I’m comfortable living in my skin
Five years old they look and smile
Everyday living in denial
Break my face and steal my life
I’ll burn my bridges with a butter knife

We’re having Fake funerals
When you haven’t died
Quote yourself on how
Your brain is fried
Grabbing folks and then some more
Feed all of their mind galore
Just to end up on your kitchen floor

And when I die, my hands are dry
The underwater Illusion was all one big lie

We’re having Fake funerals
When you haven’t died
Quote yourself on how
Your brain is fried
Grabbing folks and then some more
Feed all of their mind galore
Just to end up on your kitchen floor
