Look Alive, Judy!
It's too hot out to think straight
Can't shake the smell of all these fumes
They're clinging to my clothes and now
Feels like they're filling up my room
There are no quiet streets left
Caught in the teeth of progress
Dissenting voices fade away
Chewed up and then they are erased
When the walls fall down
Will they make a sound
If there's no one left
To hear them hit the ground?
I'm overwhelmed
My head's ready to burst
It gets hard to breathe
When you always fear the worst
Feels like I'm dragging dead weight
Everything's too loud to hear myself
My skin feels dry and stretched out
Over these bones that don't fit well
Need to see some water and not see trash
Find some trees with no plastic bags
Breathe some air that cleans my lungs
Get away before I come undone
When the walls fall down
Will they make a sound
If there's no one left
To hear them hit the ground?
I'm overwhelmed
My head's ready to burst
It gets hard to breathe
When you always fear the worst
Anxiety pours out of me
Feels like it's one thing then the next
Can't slow down I can't keep up
Gets hard to even catch my breath
Anxiety pours out of me
Feels like it's one thing then the next
Can't slow down I can't keep up
Keep tryna catch my breath
When the walls fall down
Will they make a sound
If there's no one left
To hear them hit the ground?
I'm overwhelmed
My head's ready to burst
It gets hard to breathe
When you always fear the worst
Can't shake the smell of all these fumes
They're clinging to my clothes and now
Feels like they're filling up my room
There are no quiet streets left
Caught in the teeth of progress
Dissenting voices fade away
Chewed up and then they are erased
When the walls fall down
Will they make a sound
If there's no one left
To hear them hit the ground?
I'm overwhelmed
My head's ready to burst
It gets hard to breathe
When you always fear the worst
Feels like I'm dragging dead weight
Everything's too loud to hear myself
My skin feels dry and stretched out
Over these bones that don't fit well
Need to see some water and not see trash
Find some trees with no plastic bags
Breathe some air that cleans my lungs
Get away before I come undone
When the walls fall down
Will they make a sound
If there's no one left
To hear them hit the ground?
I'm overwhelmed
My head's ready to burst
It gets hard to breathe
When you always fear the worst
Anxiety pours out of me
Feels like it's one thing then the next
Can't slow down I can't keep up
Gets hard to even catch my breath
Anxiety pours out of me
Feels like it's one thing then the next
Can't slow down I can't keep up
Keep tryna catch my breath
When the walls fall down
Will they make a sound
If there's no one left
To hear them hit the ground?
I'm overwhelmed
My head's ready to burst
It gets hard to breathe
When you always fear the worst
