lyrics
Temporary loss of reason
Tis’ the season
Lack of reason gets me grieving
When I should be bleeding 🩸
Onto a test trip
Gotta check this
Resurrected by the check list
Golden necklace
A recession
When I act this way
I demand the pay
Just to give it away
See a brighter day
It’s okay to be ashamed
Of the way the world rang
But now we check the future in your palm
Just give us a new song
Just like she wrote my ringtone
Stretch it out like fee’s dumped on you, chump
Like he’s dumb
Take the time to wear it out
Be the kind who airs it out
I feel safe inside the satanic manic panic
But I can’t handle it
The way I hand my shit to other men to fuck again
I’m sick of explaining stuff to them
Fuck the land, just kidding, sufferance is wondering
If you wanna get stuffed again
Tougher than a motherfucking woman fighting for suffrage
Trying to feed two kids for her man who shop at Lids
For a man that defends himself against
The powers that commence
Mass economic suffering
I’m hovering above their shit
Trying to fit myself inside of it
But I’m to big, my egos shred
But that don’t mean I lack common sense
I’m honoring those that bled
Take your meds
I was on the fence but I payed with my sense
Tis’ the season
Lack of reason gets me grieving
When I should be bleeding 🩸
Onto a test trip
Gotta check this
Resurrected by the check list
Golden necklace
A recession
When I act this way
I demand the pay
Just to give it away
See a brighter day
It’s okay to be ashamed
Of the way the world rang
But now we check the future in your palm
Just give us a new song
Just like she wrote my ringtone
Stretch it out like fee’s dumped on you, chump
Like he’s dumb
Take the time to wear it out
Be the kind who airs it out
I feel safe inside the satanic manic panic
But I can’t handle it
The way I hand my shit to other men to fuck again
I’m sick of explaining stuff to them
Fuck the land, just kidding, sufferance is wondering
If you wanna get stuffed again
Tougher than a motherfucking woman fighting for suffrage
Trying to feed two kids for her man who shop at Lids
For a man that defends himself against
The powers that commence
Mass economic suffering
I’m hovering above their shit
Trying to fit myself inside of it
But I’m to big, my egos shred
But that don’t mean I lack common sense
I’m honoring those that bled
Take your meds
I was on the fence but I payed with my sense
