Lyrics

I AM LAUGHING
T=147 BPM

VERSE 1/
I stopped taking my meds today
Everything will work out
But not for you, I’m afraid to say
Hands tied, tape over your mouth
Superhero culture is Frankenstein’ed
Stitched together with pursuit of happiness
The only care is how we look and we’re about to die
From happy child to active shooter gone wild

VERSE 2/
I‘m sorry you hate your life
But don’t take it out on me
You can gawk and condemn, but you still gotta pay
Don’t read the terms, click “I AGREE”
Ransomed by a life you don’t want to remember,
And you’re not allowed to forget
It feeds on fear and it will suck you dry
‘Til all that’s left is regret, and a future on fire

CHORUS/
I am laughing
The smoke is wasting
All the money on your pile
Is burning

VERSE 3/
Beauty is self-imposed planned obsolescence
Art is ammunition is the great class war
And everybody’s doing exactly what they are supposed to
My how gender and economics conspire
Suicide carried off the best
Drink and the Devil carried off the rest
Consent is only meaningful if it’s informed,
But they lied to us…they fucking lied to us

MIDDLE 8/
Mass-shootings are A-OK
But if you burn a pile of money you should be locked away
Mass-shootings are A-OK
But if you burn a pile of money…

CHORUS/
I am laughing
The smoke is wasting
All the money on your pile
Is burning

OUTRO/
Mass-shootings are A-OK
But if you burn a pile of money you should be locked away
Mass-shootings are A-OK
But if you burn a pile of money…
