Why

(album: uhhh - 2018)

Curtains open for the crowd, the protagonist
Only time will tell if the hero is to prevail
Twenty-something, but I feel like I'm forty-eight
Love is fickle, every day is Elimidate
I don't trust them if they love me, I don't love them if they trust me
Love is blind when it's sunny, love is vision when its nothing, I would rather save the money
To see the sights of a country, I don't know, just something majestic
Maybe the pyramids of Giza, maybe a weekend in Ibiza
So many woulds, I saw the cedar, too many people, way too long
The termites'll burn like a furnace, don't learn, I return in the same mental place that I don't like to be
I'm the only real problem with me, still, I'm living, Fuji filming
Fucking women, call them 'bitches', it's condescending

But today is a new day, I need a new me
I need a new why
Today is a new day, I need a new me
I need a new why
Sometimes, this life ain't like what it seems
So I need to find a new why for me

Channel thoughts through a mic I pen, FOMO nights through a fish eye lens
I might die if I don't dive in, for the hundredth time, I'll invite my friends
They'll get high, and I'll drink uncontrollably, sobering, I'll put it off to an older me
Vulnerably, I don't know how to say "No" to me, openly viewing the casket I'm opening
Used to play at midnight club, dub edition, man, I wanted that 300c
Now there's a train in my tunnel vision, oh, what a collision it's gonna be
Sickle sharpening my ice pack, feeling iffy on the right track
I don't need another nightcap, I just want to take my life back
I need a new why, I need a new reason for the shit I do
Limited view, I used to be filled with desire to prove to you
But I need something that's more suitable, like Hugo Boss for my funeral
Buried my past with the present, I'll be reborn effervescent

But today is a new day, I need a new me
I need a new why
Today is a new day, I need a new me
I need a new why
Sometimes, this life ain't like what it seems
So I need to find a new why for me

Let 'em run, let 'em run
Let 'em run
Let 'em run, let 'em run
Let 'em run
Lightning, lightning
Striking, this might be
The end
This might be the end
