Shibuya Demon

(album: DEMONDICE - 2017)

[Romanized:]

Still waiting on that intervention from my friends who know I go hard
Pack up all my shit and hike it to the village vanguard
Don't know shit about you, yet even so without you
I doubt that I'd fight against the shouts from the outside
"You're still in school, save your money, this idea is bad!
It's dangerous to go alone!" Hah, that's cute, Mom and Dad
Look, I love you fam, but the answers not in the pills
And I'ma go where I please, unless you're paying my bills
Was it you clocking work hours, down on your knees
Blowing trees after crying in the Applebee's freezer?
The reason I've been here, the music on my speaker
I would have thought the shit impossible when I was weaker
Sudden fear, finally here, I've been trying not to cry
Hands are shaking, voice is breaking, I'm like "sign Kudasai"
About a million things I wanna say, thoughts that I wanna release
Caught up in my throat because I don't speak Japanese

Madamada owari
Even though my mind says "face it,"
Complacency never did a damn thing for me
Spent my whole life searching for a reason
Look at me, what do you see, other than demons?
Hah, how unoriginal, outside of my fictional life
A one dimensional flightless individual
Priceless shit, capture it before I get out of your hair again
Right, forgot I'm just another... "Scary American."

In the midst of the crisis, found a way to feel alive
Hasn't even been a year, Japan trip number five
All of our goodbyes feel like nothing, won't be gone long
People asking questions, can't believe that I'm so far gone
"America to Tokyo, then Tokyo to Kyushu
Just to see someone who doesn't give a shit about you?" (Hold the fuck up!)
Are you serious? Delirious? All of you are crazy
To believe that this was ever about anybody else but me
Yo, privileged white girl, welcome to the real world
Welcome to the realization of the fact
You're gonna lose if ya bruise too easily, and if ya disagree
Sixteen hours a day, tips and hourly pay, two-fifty
Shut the fuck up! I refuse to be a victim to your self-imposed Systematic oppression obsession, get to checking yourself
It's bad for your health to get up in the business
Of someone whose existence, for instance, is senseless
Mania

Madamada owari
Even though my mind says "face it,"
Complacency never did a damn thing for me

Hah, how unoriginal, outside of my fictional life

Priceless shit, capture it before I get out of your hair again
