lyrics

I get pissed off at those self-checkout lines
How they’re so confusing and they take up time
I get pissed off seeing three year olds on cell phones
How their parents don’t seem to notice that their kid is in this zone

A zone where no human interaction even occurs
And everyone’s a faceless, lifeless little blur
And it pains me to see it, yes it does
Pains me to see it and I don’t know how to beat it
And I just want to figure it out

I get pissed off at myself on Facebook
Think about why instead I’m not reading a book
I get pissed off when I hear those comments
Like what is she wearing and what is she doing with a guy like him

I don’t expect you to like everyone you meet at any given time
But, jealousy comes in all shapes and sizes
Why you gotta bring people down and criticize them
All I gotta say is that I’m sick and tired
Of hearing all the bullsh from all those damn liars

All I really want is for people to be real
I can surely tell when you’re trying to conceal
All the bitterness and the emptiness and the insecurity

I can tell that you’re insecure
‘Cause all you want is to just be sure
The attention is on you

Oh oh you know
You don’t gotta impress no one
Oh oh you know
You just gotta be your own

Oh oh you know
You don’t gotta impress no one
Even if that means
You are misunderstood

Misunderstood like a movie, except this is truly
Your life you’re living and you can’t waste time
I’m sure you wanna be more than just a mime
‘Cause the more you follow, the more you lose sight
Of who you are and what is right
We gotta fight the system and truly find
Who we are before the world goes blind

I can tell that you’re insecure
‘Cause all you want is to just be sure
I can tell that you’re insecure
‘Cause all you want is to just be sure
The attention is on you
