Virtues that they signal and affirming that they’re proper
Everything that you’re promoting dispose it like cannon fodder
Barren buildings occupied we pay the tax evict the squatters
If nobody’s gonna kill me then I guess I’ll do the honors
Spalling bricks and crack my ribs unlock the cage without a key
The certified procedure reaching kindly by decree
I toss a cigarette into the fence these fields are absolutely
What are driving me insane this state I’m fugue it flared acutely
Licenses priceless invest in a shady practice
Retain impunity mutiny part of my safety tactic
The ground I’m on is thickening no one is ever listening
Hating the very being and body that I’ve inhibited
Clinical renting of beds I’m omitted from those who had needed it more
Viral infection receiving the precedent permeating from the pores
Inwardly injured I must be something translucent
They only hesitate to check on me it’s how they excuse it

Stay in school
Cause you won’t make it
Pay no mind
To what I’ve created
I’ve made it this far but what was it worth
Smoldering stardust departed from Earth
Presently it’s just a hex I used to find it valuable
And through attempts in thick and thin I’ll end with something practical
I’m not proud of where I’m from it’s mainly incidental
I’m a specter in the shadows putting words on instrumentals
Send a cipher then decode it and report it back to me
Directly speed into a stupor I’m declining rapidly
Leap with no parachute show the aerodynamics
Attempting anything I can to try to trim my life span it’s
A classic tragedy you had to be acquainted while you could
No other mode or method to communicate I’m done for good
Decades I may be making then flipping to dust
My liver’s irradiated I leave the world in disgust
Enveloped in darkness back when it started everything was so much simpler
Then you say we’re both in danger situation ain’t that similar
Enervate cannot regenerate none of the confidence I’ve held
Then to a powder I’m atomized soaking formaldehyde before the bells
Struck at 3:33 my sense of no urgency
My own mortality’s uncertain heed inadvertency

Stay in school
Cause you won’t make it
Pay no mind
To what I’ve created
I’ve made it this far but what was it worth
Smoldering stardust departed from Earth
Presently it’s just a hex I used to find it valuable
And through attempts in thick and thin I’ll end with something practical
