Everyone's setting themselves up for failure
Trying to get by, forgetting the tortures
Left behind by those who jumped ship
Without a single look back as the masses start to slip
Why am I still here?
I'm lonely and I smell like beer
It's just where I am, yes it's just where I am
Is it just to even give a damn?
I want to help you however you need
Name it, I'll do the deed
Show me what will help the most
Cause we don't want to start chasing ghosts
From the void start shrieking
We'll cover our eyes, silently peeking
I'd throw myself to them to let you escape
I'd lose myself again, if you could escape
Why am I still here?
I'm lonely but I have my queer
Little smirk to keep me just where I am
Is it just to not give a damn?
Fake plastic fires burn in the windows of churches
As the masses drone on like cold comfort torches
Nothing can save us when our saviors are dead
And our leaders have power, but it's gone to their heads
Why am I still here?
I'm horny cause I've had some beer
My smile fades faster than falling stars
Our addictions last longer than razor blade scars
Our heartaches are heavy and our emotions are numb
Our songs have died down to a low mumbled hum
Our souls were all weary, they're already gone
When all the world's depressed, it's hard to move on
