i guess i shouldn't say anything
but i will just wind up confused
convicted at your feet
i could never convince you of anything
can set me off worrying
but i won't arouse your concern
these debts make me physically hurt
but they don't bother you
none of this will ever change
because we don't try
and everybody knows the pressure's off when we die
i guess i'm lacking in confidence
i don't think
i make myself fake effusive bright bubble of fun
stale and empty as anyone
but let's go driving tonight
and i'll look out my window
at scenes moving by too fast to focus on
like we're not really anywhere
none of this will ever change
because we don't try
and everybody knows the pressure's off when we die
i'm a disaster of will
i've made a monstrous shape
i'm on a highway to hell
backed up a lane interstate
none of this will ever change
because we don't try
and everybody knows the pressure's off when we die
