Are You Listening?

Our conversation piece for the empty-handed
My life has not worked out the way I’ve planned
Problems have all ended
The answers are all stranded
And the crumbling fortune cookie called my life
I need some space where someone I can hold
Anyone at all
And lock ourselves inside
Things will never change
'Cause no one has meaning for words for long to fizz
Better be brave
'Cause no one cares
Are you listening?
Drunk and standing still as another year ends
Green to red to brown to white and brown to green again
Epidemics have demanded all solutions be abandoned
And Hollywood’s fighting for the rights to make the film
And media will all inflate
And critics are sure to hate
And I’m outside waiting in line
Things will never change
'Cause no one has meaning for words for long to fizz
Better be brave
'Cause no one cares
Are you listening?
The sun surrounds
Let’s do the drill
I need some space
Where I can shed this skin
And turn my outsides in
And lock myself inside
Things will never change
'Cause no one has meaning for words for long to fizz
Better be brave
'Cause no one cares
Are you listening?
Are you there? Are you there? Are you there? Are you there? Are you listening?
