Time
Keeps passing me by
I need a few moments
To get ahold of my life
Cause this
All seems so surreal
Like I'm in front of a camera
With no film in the reel
Space
The final frontier
I'd rather be out there
Than stranded down here
Cause I
Need an escape
I need to be somewhere
That I feel alive
Time
I know you won't wait
I can't hesitate
I've gotta move forward
And get on with my life
But I curse you old man
With your beard and your sand
Cause I just need a moment
I just need a second
Hang on a minute
Please I'm begging you, this one time, can't you just slow it all down.
Why can't you understand
I didn't have a plan
Cause I didn't think I'd be here at this age
Nothing ever stops
I've turned another page
Just going through the motions
Everyday

Change

I don't know what the he'll you're thinking
But you seem to be a bit out of touch
Acting like you're all high and mighty
Cause you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth
Maybe you're afraid of change
The world around you seems so strange
You want it all to stay the same
Each word contradicts the last one
Seems to me like you're a hypocrite
Can't you see this ironic perspective
Shoulda guessed you'd be blind to that
Why are you such an enemy to progress
Tell me how it affects your life
Cause if you could take a single step back
Maybe then you'd see how the rest of us live
Maybe you're afraid of change
The world around you seems so strange
You want it all to stay the same
But maybe you're the one to blame
For driving all of us insane
The world will never be the same

Eight o'clock in the morning and I feel like I'm gonna die
Just another day of working nine to five
Sigh away the hours, know I'm wasting my time
Nobody seems to care, I guess that's just life
Oh, I want to go home
How can anybody act so upbeat
When they're spending half their day on their feet
I can't be the only one who feels this way
I can't be the only one whose brave enough to say
Oh, I want to go home
When I'm stuck here everything feels strange
The ticking clock never seems to change
The world around me starts to fade
And I just feel I am trapped
Inside this awful place and
I won't ever escape
Oh, I want to go home
Oh, I wan't to go home
Another day is ended with hardly any pay
That's life when you're working minimum wage
My body's aching for a bed to sleep
I'm thinking bout not coming back next week
Oh, I wanna stay home

The Man

He's the man.
He's the man with the fake tan, he's the man with the fake plan
Sayin that he's gonna build a great big wall,
and make another country pay for it all.
He's the man.
He's the man with the power tie, He's the man on a power high
Spreading lies like a swarm of flies
Got half this nation hypnotized
He's the man.
He's the man with the sharp suit, He's the man with the lawsuits
Levied by collections of marginalized
Individuals affected by his blight
He's the man.
He's the man with the Russian bride, he's the man with the Russian ties
Taking bribes and bending the knee
To another power beyond this country.
He's the man.
He's the man in the golden tower, he's the man in the golden shower
I don't think that I can take another hour
Of this imbecile being in power.
And he's a demagogue.
Taking reign over this swamp.
Getting what he wants
Doesn't consider the cost.
Up on capitol hill
The fools bow to his will.
And doesn't hesitate
To let you know who he hates.

Mirrors

I feel like I can't hold on anymore
My mind has become an open door
Thoughts and memories free to leave
Please forget what you knew of me
I can't keep this up
For much longer
I want to rip the skin
Right off of my face
I lived my whole life
Wrapped in this big lie
One look in the mirror (The changes are coming)
And I'd feel so out of place (I just wish for a faster pace)
Shoulders stretching out this dress
Fills me up with great distress
Stubborn stubble too hard to hide
It makes me want to fucking (Give up and) die
Been making changes every day
Let the old me slip away
Everything will be the same
Except my pronouns and my name
