lyrics

every day’s a new ending
to cope i just keep pretending
say normal is what you feel
and if you don’t feel, that’s what’s real

last week i thought you were undead
this week i think that you’re just dead
yeah i’m fine; thanks for asking
see you next week, no point relaxing

coach says, keep hustlin’
wanna be something?
keep playing while
your best friends burn around you
at some point the horror starts to fade

and i don’t really care
but this is all i know
head down; keep pushing through

sometimes i feel like we never change
like there’s no escape from the things we used to love
i wish the floods would come and wash away my name

seasons come and seasons go
some static and some just echo
say normal is what you feel
and if you don’t feel, that’s what’s real

last game i tried to be myself
this game i’ll try somebody else
yeah i’m fine; thanks for asking
[MOODY COOKBOOK is inhabiting]

and i wish i could leave
but this is all i know
how would i make it out alive

sometimes i feel like we never change
like there’s no escape from the things we used to love
i wish the floods would come and wash away my name
(and i wish i could leave)
another year, new trip round a sun
but it’s the same old bases that i keep on running, so
i pray the floods come and they’ll wash away my name
(but this is all i know)

and everyone reminds me i’m lucky
not many people get this far
would it be better if i was never here?
[spoken] i don’t know. i guess i just have no sense of what i want?

sometimes i feel like we never change
like there’s no escape...
i wish the floods would come...

sometimes i feel like we never change
like there’s no escape from the things we used to love
i wish the floods would come and wash away my name
(and i wish i could leave)
another year, new trip round a sun
but it’s the same old bases that i keep on running, so
i pray the floods come and they’ll wash away my name
(but this is all i know)

okay, that’s all the time that we have for today. i’ll see you next week
