Can't escape the blackness

Imagine living
Breathing with no meaning
Bothered out of boredom
The reason for your being
What a masterpiece

Lo and behold
The egos grown so bold
As we grow old, the soul runs cold
I watched you fold
Sold, for silver and gold
Slaves to a phone
Yet we're all so woke

We're so happy
You're so edgy
Settled on sadness
So ready for the blackness
Self-made misery, leaves you buried
Settled in sadness
You can't escape the blackness

Cut out the tongue that speaks
Swallow your misery
We have two, two eyes to look
But only one to see
Cut out the tongue that speaks
Swallow your misery
We have two eyes to look
Tell me what you see

Can't escape the blackness
Can't escape the blackness

We're so happy
You're so edgy
Settled on sadness
So ready for the blackness
Self-made misery
Leaves you buried
Settled in sadness
You can't escape the blackness

You cannot, you cannot
You cannot escape it
You cannot, you cannot
You cannot escape it
