I was born out in Olympia before we moved out west
To a town that no one cares about unless we're talking meth
But I guess if you just think about it everything makes sense
If your brother is a superstar, then your sister is a fence

And if you think you are a failure, then you probably won't get far
There's a billion other strangers driving that same old rusty car
And if you think that you are better just because you have a star
Remember anyone can pass you just by pumping a little bit harder
Oh yeah, pumping just a little bit harder

All my life, I thought I had it all in sight
But now I only wonder why

There ain't no one human person who can tell me what is right
There ain't no one human girlfriend who can show me the light
Because everyone is broken in their own peculiar why
I am only more confused when you tell me everything's okay
Oh please, don't say anything

Why do we keep singing love songs when the world is up in flames?
What's the point of making friends when vulnerability is estranged?
In a world where we are more concerned with Facebook than with face
We await the coming crisis when God drowns the human race
Again without a trace

And I'm like all my life, I thought everyone was on my side
But no, everybody wants the pie
And nobody's gonna get it but not everybody's gonna try

I will lie down in the backyard with my dearest friend tonight
We will make sweet love until the sunbeams flash and it's time to go inside
While I clasp my hands together, and I scream into the night
I will set his house on fire and come running to his wife

And we will stand around in the kitchen with that glazed look in our eyes
We will stab one another in the backseat until our backs are red and white
We will dance around in the kitchen spilling cracker crumbs and wine
We will hang ourselves on the bathroom walls until we see the light
Oh, until we see the light

And all my life, all I wanna know is why I waste so much goddamn time
Trying to find my place here when all I'm gonna do is die
Yeah all I'm gonna do is die
Yeah all I'm gonna do is die.
