lyrics

You ask me am I content?
Probably not, but I don't know
I can't feel a fuckin thing and it makes it tough to grow

My mind's waste bin
I let it fill to the brim
It's steady overflowin and It's hard to get a grip again

Stagnant
I always wind up being that and when I start to move forward, I just circle right back

The heart wants something that the brain can't grasp
Every time I cry for help, the world screams back

Riddled with anxiety, a false sense of autonomy
While I blame our society as an excuse for my dependencies

There's nowhere to run and all hope is gone

But I can fake a smile and do my time and say I'm fine

I'm comfortably dumb

Am I disconnected?
Ask me again in 5 minutes
I'll start to get my thoughts together and I'll never fucking finish

I've been tempted
To put an end to it all
Hicks said It's just a ride, well where do I get off?

Complacement
Where do I fit? I don't belong
When everything is right, why do I still feel wrong?

I'm sick of always writing these apathetic songs
When you hate that you exist, It can be hard to stay strong

Riddled with anxiety, a false sense of autonomy
While I blame our society as an excuse for my dependencies

There's nowhere to run and all hope is gone

But I can fake a smile and do my time and say I'm fine

I'm comfortably dumb

Whether we admit it or not, sometimes we all feel like giving up

But next time you feel like you've lost all hope, you can mark my words

Atleast your not (You're never all) alone

We're spending so much of our time so out of touch with our realities
This drug dubbed distraction delivered via glowing screen

Or through a bottle a needle or a pill
Strips us of any identity, quells our free will

It's an illusion you see
The notion that we're anything but gears in a machine

I'm fucking useless in this state of disillusionment
My indifference to the world at large I dread

Riddled with anxieties
Strapped with a pipe dream of autonomy
I just can't embrace sobriety
So for now I'll stay

Comfortably comfortably comfortably

Numb and hide away in bed
Curtains drawn, I'm playing dead

When nukes descend to end the earth
I'll try my best, conceal my mirth

We've had no say in our own birth
So what's existence truly worth?

Consciousness my greatest bane
With vice in hand I shall remain

Comfortably comfortably

Comfortably dumb
