[Verse 1]
I get so sick of trying to live on planet earth
Feeling like I'm walking in my sleep
They bought and sold me, then they told me what I'm worth
Now everything I do just feels so cheap
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I feel like I'm malfunctioning
All this world's conditioning
I didn't know that scars could run so deep
[Chorus]
They say I've gotta get back to the land of the living
Gotta try to disconnect
But when I live in the land of the living
I feel like I'm already dead
[Verse 2]
We're just insects lost within this human hive
It's funny how we act like we're above
Our synthetic, apathetic little lives
Thirsting for the chemical of love
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Am I wrong, to feel this way?
Get down on your knees and pray
And hope this angry god thinks you're enough
[Chorus]
They say I've gotta get back to the land of the living
Gotta try to disconnect
But when I live in the land of the living
I feel like I'm already dead
[Bridge]
I think that hell would be better
Dance in the fire forever
Then maybe I could get some rest
I cannot fight how I feel
If angels ever were real
They'd take this broken heart out of my chest
[Chorus]
They say I've gotta get back to the land of the living
Gotta try to disconnect
But when I live in the land of the living
I feel like I'm already dead
