Degenerates

(альбом: You're Welcome - 2021)

My friends are degenerates
But I'd never change them
Liars, cheats, and hypocrites
Not the type for saving

Why do we tend to hurt one another?
Dividing up all the books by the covers
Like it ain't hard enough simply being me
(Like it ain't hard enough simply being me)
Or could I sum you up just by what I see?

In reality, everyone's a lot more complicated

My friends are degenerates
But I'd never change them
Liars, cheats, and hypocrites
Not the type for saving

So they say
So they say

I get that look, more than I remember
Turning your nose up while we're at dinner
Like how can he afford something that I want?
(Like how can he afford something that I want?)
Sold all your empathy, tell me what it cost

Character is who you are when no one's watching

My friends are degenerates
But I'd never change them
Liars, cheats, and hypocrites
Not the type for saving

So they say
So they say

Like a moment of truth that you try to omit
Consequences retained for the judgement you give
When you finally find you're the degenerate
It's gonna hit like a brick

Like it ain't hard enough simply being me
Or could I sum you up just by what I see?

My friends are degenerates
But I'd never change them
Liars, cheats, and hypocrites
Not the type for saving

So they say
So they say
