lyrics

Cut the loss that was my day
Fall asleep in the fucking airport
No one here can stay
Golden hour’s done

I’m 200 miles from home
And I know there’s a pay phone
And a bus station but I’m
Not about to move from this fucking bench

So this is what you call interesting?
Show me something worth repeating
Is there anyone here who can show me something?
I’m having trouble remembering why I came

I’ve officially succeeded in surrounding myself
With excess that I despise

I always assumed that you’d agree
Eventually this shit stops being fun
This leisure was never won
But I guess I underestimated your capacity
To grin and stagnate, say it’s all right

So this is what you call interesting?
Tell me something worth hearing
So this is what you call interesting?
Introspective? This is just disdain

I’d like to tear down your ideals
And wipe the irony off your face
To make you look like the ghost that you are
The ghost that you are

I feel the same way here
I feel the same way here
I hate to say I knew it
I hate to say

So this is what you do here?
Party like you just don’t care
The callous is thickening
