lyrics

Once upon a time I was a human.
I was lost in line inside of this illusion.
So stupid, just another dumb confused kid.
In the gutter, among the rubble feelin useless.
So I grew fists and started to form crop circles.
I was a nuisance but it's easy when the ground's not fertile.
We got hurdled into an asteroid field,
woulda got further but that mass void's real.
I make spaceships outta hatred,
they just break quick they're so outdated.
We're human, racin into a black hole.
There's no use in savin it if you never had hold.
We're human, racin into a black hole but
there's no use in saving what you've never really had hold of.

So really, aliens are real. I swear it's silly, but I'll say what I feel.
In hopes they'll float down to my town
to get a meal and reveal themselves.
And I'll say,"Hey, can you take me away?
This place is a grave, and today I wanna be saved.
You guys are my kind of creatures. I'd die for like-minded leaders.
So let's leave the planet god damn it.
I can't even honestly stand it.
Let's destroy it together, nothings gonna get better.
Pull the lever and level it all, death to their treacherous walls.
A rebel revels in the cause.
Fuck whether or not it's met with an applause.
Everybody's weird and they've got the same fears.
Take me with you.
I don't wanna stay here.
