O MEN OF ATHENS

lyrics

O MEN OF ATHENS

A wise man once said there's a song in every one of us"
But that was long ago, and I don't think it still applies
It's the perfect crime to steal things from your mind
When it doesn't wanna give em up
'Cause you know it better than the back of your hand

I don't wanna lose my touch
I don't wanna be a normal kid, play video games and waste my time
And make a shitload of money, and spend it all at Best Buy
Maybe I'll feel better when the songs die

I'm getting scared that I'm not suffering enough
Or caring about anything enough to make it art
Literally all I ever think about is how not to run out of steam
What am I gonna do when I forget how to feel shit

No one ever said that these would keep on coming
I hold myself to too-high standards, set too many goals
And it's destructive, I'd kill myself if it would make me famous
Maybe I'll just let the songs die
I'm losing my touch
Maybe I'll quit music and be happy and get a real job
Is it worth it to be empty, and give your insides away?
Maybe I'll just let the songs die

The world's revered musicians are more famous than most presidents
They got bitches, they got fame
They helped a lot of people just like me not go insane
If I help somebody do that, then maybe they would somehow fix me back
