about

First of all if you listen to this with your phone speakers, laptop speakers or ear buds, You suck. That said you know when some one askes you "how's it going? and you're like 'yeah working, hanging out". and then they say "living the dream mate"
well i think were all living in a fucking pipe dream or somebody else's dream. I'd much rather be not working for fuck all pay and doing something interesting or fun. I don't know if this makes sense to anyone else but is working to pay rent or a mortgage or the bills really living the dream is it? or are we all just living in a ridiculous mental construct constantly shitting on everything.

lyrics

So It may seem like and ignorant I question but
How the fuck do i
Seem to ruin everything
And some how waste away my life

I challenged the gutter to a fight
And it gave me a black eye
I know thats Its my own stupid fault
And i know the reason why
Why

Yeah I'm living the fuck pipedream
And the nightmares never ending
And the party's almost over
And my dinks ( friends) have all gone missing

And somebody shit in shower
Like Concrete on brazilian flower
Broken Angry piano
Its an Existential crisis

I know the chips are stacked against me
Life Roulette shoots cyanide
Lowly, hungry god forsaking
I think i need another line

I tried to stop or just press pause
fast forward or rewind
Cant Avert eyes to a train wreck and mines
Off time but i still won't die
Die
Yeah I'm living the fuck pipedream
And the nightmares never ending
And the party's almost over
And my dinks ( friends) have all gone missing

And somebody shit in shower
Like Concrete on Brazilian flower
Broken Angry piano
Its an Existential crisis

Hello to all the plastic people
melting in the light
Your ivory towers broken and
Your high horse is about to die
Your ego's over inflated
As you're costing everyone time
Do they pay you for all that inane bullshit
Or do you just take the whole fucking pie

Im living the fucking pipe dream
Yeah Im living the fucking pipe dream
And my friends have all gone missing
And the drinks have all been taken

Having an existential crisis
Its just an existential crisis
And somebody shit in the shower
And the nightmares never ending
