lyrics

(KING DYLAN)
Searching for pair-a-dice, it's a craps shoot/
it's a cold table though, cash rules/ we don't have to lose/
but we're paralyzed/ by these parasites/ and these half-truths/
Terrified by savage dudes/ who wanna swear by fighting using absolutes/
Fuck your attitudes and those glaring eyes/
like "How dare I try to be that astute"/ ya know?
The world is nuts/ see my knuckles? They curlin' up/
I just wanna fight sometimes/ but I might be blind/
to the type of mind/ that won't budge/ Ugh Fuck!
Fuck the system, fuck the police and politicians/
Fuck the Karens and ostracism/ Maybe we should just stop and listen?/
Yeah, I don't know what it's like to be you and you can't speak for anyone else/
Cuz not many people want to better themselves/ Goddammit, humanity's headed for Hell/
Oh yeah, fuck your title/ abusive power/ stop the cycle/
You some cowards/ drop the rifle/ or shoot me down and call me psycho/

Whatcha gonna do when it's all gone, whatcha gonna do when it's all lost
(watcha gonna do, watcha gonna do now?)
When it all falls, when it all falls
Whatcha gonna do when it's all gone, whatcha gonna do when it's all lost
(I just wanna live where the wild things are)
When it all burns, when it all burns

(SMIXX)
All yelling in an echo chamber, up to our necks in our stress and anger/
But most of us can't even see the danger of political views making us hate a stranger/
Or lose a friendship/ is it all worth it? Time to end it? Is anything perfect?/
One day we can finally mend it, but who's the ringmaster of this circus?/
This world is so divisive/ Wasting my life each post I'm writing/
Why am I fighting with another troll? Someone's wrong on Facebook, so here we go!/
Perusing the news, it's easy to lose faith/ and it's also hard to choose what's fake/
The right or left, the right or wrong?/ There's no middle ground we keep piling on/
The weight of the world is upon our shoulders/
Changing minds is like pushing boulders/
Hill after hill, then up a cliff/
and we're all exhausted so we're bound to slip/
Minds are weapons and we found a clip/
We start busting rounds with no time to grip/
and we don't even see who's down and hit/
When we finally look around we see the ground is split

Whatcha gonna do when it's all gone, whatcha gonna do when it's all lost
(watcha gonna do, watcha gonna do now?)
When it all falls, when it all falls
Whatcha gonna do when it's all gone, whatcha gonna do when it's all lost
(I just wanna live where the wild things are)
When it all burns, when it all burns

(GQ)
Now that it's over, I need the closure
Why do we fly into the sun?
Now that it's over - tell me it's over.
