Misanthropic Drunken Loner

(album: Rogue Taxidermy - 2013)

My breakfast is straight out the medicine cabinet
A remedy for the aftermath of my habits
Sometimes it's the ones who try to help
That hurt the most
I feel like we're playing tug of war and I'm the rope
And I'm stretched to the limit
But you keep on pulling
And I'm gonna lose my goddamn mind, I'm gonna lose my mind

I want to hide away in the back of a cave
At the top of a mountain
Where no one can hear me and no one can see me
So I don't have to deal with them
And they don't have to deal with me
'Cause relationships are overrated
Maybe I'm just tired and jaded
But I'm sorry I just like myself more than I like you

So call me anti-social, call it masturbation
Either way it's a solo operation
I'm just far more comfortable alone

It appears that apathy has gotten the best of me
'Cause I'm so tired of you talking my ear off
About all your problems I just can't fix
I don't appreciate this unwanted company
And your constant chatter
Reminds me why I'd rather you leave me be

So call me anti-social, call it masturbation
Either way it's a solo operation
I'm just far more comfortable alone

'Cause people are ugly and people are hateful
Destructive and greedy
We're proud and ungrateful
The world would be so much better off without us
So swallow a bullet
Or a handful of pills
We're all compost in training
And there's graves left to fill
Distract ourselves to make us feel like we're not just mistakes
Distract ourselves to make us feel like we're not just mistakes

It seems that everybody always has a bone to pick
A promise to break, never again will I make that mistake
Of trusting anyone
Trusting anyone
Trusting anyone
This is my misanthropic confession
Human beings are a waste of breath and
Don't think I exclude myself
I'm an asshole just like you

'Cause people are ugly and people are hateful
Destructive and greedy
We're proud and ungrateful
The world would be so much better off without us
So swallow a bullet
Or a handful of pills
We're all compost in training
And there's graves left to fill
Distract ourselves to make us feel like we're not just mistakes
Distract ourselves to make us feel like we're not just mistakes

My breakfast was straight out the medicine cabinet
