The NPC

Starve The Ego, Feed The Soul

I guess ill hold my tongue 'till the day I die
'Cause every time I try to speak my mind
It's met with resistance and invalidation
Nobody seems to care about anything that I have to say
My existence doesn't matter, now I'm just shattered
Everything I say is background chatter
I feel like I'm nothing but an NPC
But I wanna believe, believe in me
Because I breathe the same air that you breathe
But that's not the way life seems to be going

Goes in one ear and right out the other
I'm looking for cover, but don't even bother
With me, please, leave me be
I'm just the NPC

Can you even believe there's hope for me
Can you misanthrope and cope for me
Please, they wont let me be free, because I'm an NPC
I am not like you, I envy your free will
I'm stuck here forever, I'm headed for the hills
But the hills they have eyes, they seem to be the only ones
Paying any attention,
They're my only friend, up until the end
I'm not gonna go through all this again
I hope you understand

Goes in one ear and right out the other
I'm looking for cover but don't even bother
With me, please, leave me be
I'm just the NPC

I've been silent for an eternity
I can grin in my mind internally
Besides chagrin, I'm fine, metaphysically
But I can never win, I'm on fire literally

And if it's fine with you then it's fine with me
Because apparently that's the way its got to be
Even though I don't really agree
There's nothing I can say or do about it
Except build my house around it
And a moat to surround it
On my little island of solitude
Forget the latitude and longitude
Forever my attitude is wrongitude
But my silence is my fortitude

I guess ill hold my tongue 'till the day I die
'Cause every time I try to speak my mind
It's met with resistance and invalidation
Nobody seems to care about anything that I have to say
My existence doesn't matter, now I'm just shattered
Everything I say is background chatter
I feel like I'm nothing but an NPC
But I wanna believe, believe in me
Because I breathe the same air that you breathe
But that's not the way life seems to be going

Goes in one ear and right out the other
I'm looking for cover, but don't even bother
With me, please, leave me be
I'm just the
