The Difference
[Intro]
Life, life, life

[Verse 1]
How do you know way more than I do?
How do you have it all figured out?
How do you have connections with the truth, and know what everything we hear is all about?
Pain, how I feel don’t got to be explained
I remain somewhere in the family of insane
My brain knows too much, but it knows nothing at all
I’ve been called a liar, I’ve been called an addict
I’ve been at a low when the high is automatic
I’ve been needed a jacket in this freezing planet
When the world was going to end, I didn’t even panic
I just want to know what happens when the dreamеrs vanish
I can hide it with a smile so you won't see the damagе
Somebody once told me that I wasn't shit, I believed her
Tried to do anything to please her
But as I laid beneath her and realized I could no longer reach her
I fell out, and let her tell me I'm a sellout
No more help, I put this belt down
A battle in your own head is pretty common though
When you only exist through an audio stream
They wouldn't hear me if I screamed
They'll never know that they all are figments of a dream (Dream)
I wish I could just sit for a while, with no responsibility
Just observe, all the other people and the words that they use
That would be some tranquility
Sometimes, I hate when they film me
Sometimes, the things in my mind become filthy
I just pray that I’m normal too, even though we all seek to be exceptional
That’s why we invent the unconventional, and live life like it’s just a festival
Nobody take me serious with all this gold
I just want the wisdom that you have when you get old
They say I got to wait for that, but I never liked to do what I was told
When the world goes cold, no nutrients to grow, then will you be so bold?
I kinda feel like I’m a piece of mold, ready to be cleaned by the system
Fuck, who am I kidding?
I got a world to change, I need to stop bitching
Truth
[Chorus]
The difference of addiction and youth
Uh, the difference between addiction and youth
It’s kind of funny the unlike you, make you feel comfortable
The difference between addiction and youth

[Verse 2]
As the world turns, and we wait to meet demise
Wonder if divine life meets us when the time is right
With no proof or scientific evidence, only then can believe and become relevant
Seek rebirth, need time to settle in
Then I'll get up again, and see the things I never did
Is this me speaking, or is this someone else?
Are these my own thoughts, or is this just a dope socket?
I’ve learned about life through love
So how do we inform those of us who, have never felt the touch of, a goddess when she vulnerable?
Giving my condolence to you, if you never felt that feeling I just hope that you do
It’s something kind of hard to comprehend, when your life on the end
I leave, things behind that always slip my mind, cause my mind is always elsewhere
I guess I feel myself there, a place where space is erased, I never felt scared
That why giving up feels satisfying, didn’t have to try to turn the water back to wine
The impossible is tempting, (?) when it’s there, never (?)
It’s hard to breathe when you care, the moment I was drowning, you were coming up for air
I wish that I could make you understand, I just want to see my mother dance
If I fuck it up, I’m praying for another chance
You could never feel euphoria as lovers can
I fucking am, I said I fucking am, gone
