the society we live in

They say the rain will stop but I can't take another day
They say the stocks could drop but I don't trust a word they say
Look in the mirror just to figure it out
But I can't
(No I can't)
I never thought that I would make it this far
Avoiding battles just to skip through the war
It turns out I can be a mess sometimes
But then I wonder why
(It's the society we live in)
(It's the society we live in)

They save the politics for what we see but who they know
Avoiding drama just to push us on a different show
It turns out all was just a mess they made
So we could play their game
(It's the society we live in)

You know they shouldn't always blame it on the youth
Like they would know what to do
But this is not what I'm made for
I hear their voices like the back of my mind
And now they're all asking why
But this was not what I paid for

I know you didn't really ask for it
Like all my songs, I work fast for it
Maybe I look for an answer and that led me here
Maybe I cared for the wrong ones?
But went too far with the good ones?
And all the stress for the right one has led me to here

But if society is all wrong
And I turn shit into a real song
Look in the mirror just to figure it out
But I can't
(It's the society we live in)
(And it's anxiety we live with)
(It's the society we live in)
