And stare out into space.
We look for our souls,
In hopes they may erase.

We have friends in our heads,
That hate us like you do.
Like the rest of the world:
Screw them too.

We stare at TVs
With nothing but static.
We go up in our minds,
Like they are our attics.

And when we are done,
We float down once again
To the hurt in our hearts,
And subsiding of pain.

Life is game.
A game of chess.
If you don't know how to play,
It turns out a mess.

We are the people,
The kids of destruction.
We spread like germs,
Some stories of subversion.

We are an infection,
a cancerous one.
And though the battle's over,
The war has just begun.

We lie down on the floor
And stare out into space.
We look for our souls,
In hopes they may erase.

We have friends in our heads,
That hate us like you do.
Like the rest of the world:
Screw them too.

We stare at TVs
With nothing but static.
We go up in our minds,
Like they are our attics.

And when we are done,
We float down once again
To the hurt in our hearts,
And subsiding of pain.

Life is game.
A game of chess.
If you don't know how to play,
It turns out a mess.

We are the people,
The kids of destruction.
We spread like germs,
Some stories of subversion.

We are an infection,
a cancerous one.
And though the battle's over,
The war has just begun.
