The brain named itself


*Chorus*

I was cursed my lifetime ago
When I became everybody I know
About my lifetime ago I was told
I'd grow commonly old

*Verse*

The fear that today will be like yesterday and the same array of movements will replay

The fear that my friends have other friends and the scale I take other end

I climbed down from my shelf to talk to a man who knew himself
He told me he was left behind, nobody was there to save his kind

 

*Chorus*

The fear that one day I will be like him and no Matter how much I binge I will be stuck like this man who failed himself and his clan

 

*bridge*
the problem is one day he will ascend
Into a place we call heaven from there he will look down and regret leaving his crown on the ground

*Outro*

He regrets not using his child
Hood
He regrets not doing the things he
Should
He regrets not riding the wonder
Wheel
He regrets feeling the things he (X2)

The song is about trying to fit in, and about a few people I know who gave up and/or don't want to
