I stopped reading dystopian novels
When I realized that I was living inside of one
I stopped reading romantic fiction
When I realized that I would never find love
And I stopped reading between the lines
And the small print on my parking fines
And I started taking bad advice
From inspiring quotes that said
The key to life is this
Ambition is free
Success costs
Failure pays dividends
Victory holds hands with loss
Tomorrow's happiness comes at no cost
If tomorrow never comes
I swapped citalopram for Benzedrine
And kale chips for ketamine
I turned my body into train tracks
My fondest moments became violence
I didn't worry where the time went
I'm a character that Burroughs would be proud of
And I feel so much better now
I feel so much better now
And I feel so much better now
I feel
I stopped thinking coherent thoughts
When I realized that I could just think like you
And I stopped writing coherent words
When I realized a stream of consciousness would do
And I started jumping on the trend
Of justifying means without the ends
And I know I'm better than your friends
And I know that you think so too
And I feel so much better now
I feel so much better now
And I feel so much better now
I feel
