Ugly Human News (Depersonalization Disorder)

from Alterity by Ennui

/

about

I really have to try to be a social human.
I'm very disconnected at times.
Things can get really dark for me, but as long as I'm writing these songs I can breathe.

I'm very aware.
And that can be a curse.
Sometimes it's better to be oblivious and a lot of the time I wish I was.
These are my burdens.

lyrics

//Hello. Hello. My name’s Ennui
I’m a bottomless pit and I don’t really give a shit about most things
I was handed this gift that I wish I could kick
I got this knack for noticing hypocrisy and noticing the bullshit
My mental is mocking me, my mental is the culprit
Where are my emotions?
They’re buried under snowdrifts
I cannot focus
This life is a board game, but I will not fold it
The heaviest of thoughts are the most potent
I keep going back to that same old trick
Ignorance is bliss (but you're a smart kid)
I keep going back to that old bullshit
Ignorance is bliss, and you can kiss my dick.

//Burdens, burdens, so many burdens, but are they only burdens because I recognize them?

//The folks in the front might as well get their money back
The hype got the best of them and I’m just spitting on their hands
That’s twenty grand, funny man
Pull it from your money bag
The running back is running bad
And I don’t have a back up plan
The line out is long, but I’ll keep you company
You won’t breathe comfortably
Because nothing’s free, except the truth
But you don’t trust it because it’s got old shoes
But it’ll run up on you
And fuck the glass tube
Because camera crews
Pick and choose what’s news
When in reality I’m reality
Ugly human news

//I’m choking on cold air, because I don’t believe in ghosts
It’s hard to quit drinking when you need to raise a toast
Cynics laugh the hardest, but we also hurt the most
