about

This was the last track on the album, and we brought in our friends Mario and Ariel to add in stuff for fun. Mario sang the second verse and Ariel did all the guitars. This is the only track on the album where I just sang. Robert also wrote and performed the rap you can hear at the end of the track, as well do his own impromptu keyboard soloing. Not 100% certain of his lyrics.

lyrics

Why do I feel this way?
I can't handle this shit today
I can't feel anything
Please all of you, go away

No one wants to be my friend
No one lets me feel content
No one wants to hold my hand
I just feel so thin

Can't stand the hate
I can't get away, I'm
Just trying to feel some pain
And this fucking bullshit, and
I know that everything I do
Isn't okay

I long for love
I long for peacefulness
I long for hope
Because I have nothing
I wish to find some peace of mind
From where the conscious stay

Can't stand the hate
I can't get away, I'm
Just trying to feel some pain
And this fucking bullshit, and
I know that everything I do
Isn't okay

I can't stand the hate
Need to fuck off, the pain
E-malgamate and let it rain
Like blood from the sky as
My hollow eyes, as I
Let my spirit die from my
Head to my toes

A future that's bleak if
I hate the world, I need a
Love to see the purity unfurl
Make it go away, I can't handle it
Make it go away, it's fucking all bullshit
