It feels like fifty years have passed and still, I'm locked inside
If I spend another hour I think I'm gonna cry
Three more people in the room feels like a huge crowd
Can't escape the prying eyes of these old curious crows
We don't get along together, barely laugh at all
And hardly tolerate each other - it's a forever brawl-
And it is quite ironic, that I wish to be alone
When I used to love people, and made anywhere my home
If they ask about my future, I'll smile and I'll lie
The only thing I want from it, is a fucking way to die
I can't find a little hope even though I try
Where is god I wonder, as I sit down and I sigh
This life sucks, I want a refund, this aint what I planned
I don't know what I will do, once this nightmare ends
Cause I don't have a job, or a career; it is no fun
To think of a sweet future, when your life hasn't begun
Dad's been reading about coaching, and hhinks that he's so smart
Mom keeps saying "just be positive", and "You need to take a walk"
Don't they understand? This shit's bigger than us all
The world's slowly dying, it's poisoned to the core
But of course, I'll read more books, I'm sure that they will help
When I'm gone at least I'll have an HD map of hell
And of course I'll take a stroll, out there on the busy street
Let corona catch me, and have the best reason to weep
This life sucks, I want a refund, this aint what I planned
I don't know what I will do, once this fucking nightmare ends
I don't have a job, or a career; It is no fun
To think of a sweet future, when your life hasn't begun
