Overdue

Well look at that there you are, waiting for a lover
Whoever that poor soul might just be
You'd take Satan, you'd take St Peter
You'd take goddamn Mary Magdeline
And you'd offer it up, sacrifice pleasure
All in the name of "getting it"

Glued to the web, that's the internet
Wherever else could you get that fix
Of body dysmorphia and post ironic humour
An assortment of trauma dumping broken kids

Your passion's a commodity
Conspiracy that those who lead corrupt the systems policy
The consequence a call-out tweet
But go ahead and disagree
Contrarian is what you've been raised to be

Breathing till you're dizzy, thats the nicotine addiction
The business had a vision
Get the kids and give it to them
Tell 'em that's it's different then they watch it kill em
It's a drug, though
And you're an addict, so

Cue the post-youth crisis, self-determined diagnosis
Preferential bias for the likes of you online
And ignore the movements if they don't benefit you
You've cracked the system
How did you do it?

No, stop assuming you're immune to being wrong, it's human to
And nature's rule to fuck with you
Presume your luck won't follow through
Confuse the lust with love
Pursue it all the more because you'll lose
Any sense of trust you knew the second you give in to it

Internet epidemic, still alive and still regret it
Anything you say prophetic you verbatim stole from reddit
But hey at least you fucking said it
Gotta count for something ain't it?

Manifestation manifesto let them get the best of you so
Enter Nihilism, Atheism with the vision that nothing matters
If all you do is take the piss and give up on everything

Everyday less motivating, must be getting frustrating
Time well spent self educating, communicating, stimulating
Masturbating, deteriorating online dating
Speculating celebrity feuds

All while zooted every afternoon
The only thing that keeps you 'you'
Isn't even really you
Did you think that through?

I think that we are doomed
But that? Well that was overdue
