Gut Punch/Don't Meet Your Idols
All the good people are gone
Or at least the ones I know
I know that's nihilistic bullshit
And my friends have told me so
I feel guilty being hurt
'Cause there are other people hurting
And those people really need support right now
I cast a stone out on the water
And it came back to me
And it broke the laws of physics
But I kinda wish it sank
'Cause when you break what can't be broken
There are people who get hurt
And those people really need support right now
Every time I see a spark
There's someone putting out the fire
But I will not let my grandparents bury their grandchild
It's a struggle back and forth
And I'm learning, but it's happening by force
It's 4 a.m. and I'm fucking tired
The holes in these socks have been there for a while
But I keep holding on, I guess they fit my style
I've been walking this road and I'm getting pretty tired
I've been walking this road and I'm getting fucking tired
Don't meet your idols
They said that you might have your flaws, but I didn't listen
And I bowed at the base of your feet like some sort of lost kitten
And I watched how you treated your friends, my mouth filling with bile
But karma is a double-edged sword, and you lost at your trial
Don't meet your idols
Don't meet your idols
Or at least the ones I know
I know that's nihilistic bullshit
And my friends have told me so
I feel guilty being hurt
'Cause there are other people hurting
And those people really need support right now
I cast a stone out on the water
And it came back to me
And it broke the laws of physics
But I kinda wish it sank
'Cause when you break what can't be broken
There are people who get hurt
And those people really need support right now
Every time I see a spark
There's someone putting out the fire
But I will not let my grandparents bury their grandchild
It's a struggle back and forth
And I'm learning, but it's happening by force
It's 4 a.m. and I'm fucking tired
The holes in these socks have been there for a while
But I keep holding on, I guess they fit my style
I've been walking this road and I'm getting pretty tired
I've been walking this road and I'm getting fucking tired
Don't meet your idols
They said that you might have your flaws, but I didn't listen
And I bowed at the base of your feet like some sort of lost kitten
And I watched how you treated your friends, my mouth filling with bile
But karma is a double-edged sword, and you lost at your trial
Don't meet your idols
Don't meet your idols
