lyrics

Wake up. Don't sleep
Forget your dreams
Distance yourself
From this reality
Head in the dirt
Hide from the sun
Dig dig deeper
Down down til I'm no one

I'm no one
A product of all
The trends I follow
I follow

Frozen muscle
Tongue stuck to the rail
Limp through sentences
Nothing you say has value
Seal your mouth shut
Consume headlines
Fill fill the mold
Kill kill kill your sense of pride

Desperate anxious longing
I feel it physically
I'm slower to deliver
The line I rehearsed

Fixate on new faces
Searching for connection
From the privacy of my home
It's like I'm not alone

I am a fraud. I am a fraud
Dependent on a screen
I forget what it means to be me
Morph my personality
To whoever you may need
Collection of ghosts
Parasite without a host

Negative. Identity.

My vision is blurred by leaves
Smoke signals for no one
For no one
For no one
For no one to see
Broken compass
In a sea of trees
Each painful memory blocking
My view of the way through

Forget your dreams
Distance yourself
From this reality
Maybe then you'll find peace

Follow
No one
I follow
No one
