A Soreness So Familiar It Soon Becomes Unquestioned

(альбом: Egg On Face. Foot In Mouth. Wriggling Wriggling Wriggling. - 2017)

The choice between attack or to apologize
I find contrived white lies so no more anger will arise
This harmony isn't mutual but maybe I am condescending
Allowing qualms that cause alarm to all remain unmentioned

I try and calm you down I just coax you into smoking
So you can share my numbness and assume I'm only joking
When I sass you with a smile, I see you didn't notice
The quiver in my voice, the fact my bow is broken

I had a nosebleed when I woke up then I didn't go to work
I find my problems are all first world but still I'm feeling hurt
Well seasoned perspective it makes me hate myself
I can complain of my sadness but I have more than someone else

Am I just a spoiled brat who taught themselves how to cry
Who's so preconditioned now all their emotions are a lie?
I close my eyes and look inside, no surprise I find nothing
It's people who shape each other and people are disgusting

'At least' isn't helping
