The vocals of this are soft spoken, like a younger version of Nirvana-era Kurt Cobain, balancing the lyrical topics surrounding the comfort of escape.
The haunting yet positive guitar chord progression capitalizes on this, rocking back and forth across the frets.
[Verse 1]
Wake up the kids
They'll be little astronauts
But they're throwing fits
Hoping you'd forget them not
And if you don't quit
Neither will they
Cuz thats how we learn
It's hows its gotta stay
[Verse 2]
Get up your grades
You need to know the way
To stay boring
And practice everyday
From here on out
With everything I've got
I'll make you hate my guts
[Chorus]
It's been alright so far
Were learning we're just larva
I'm wasting time you're wasting space
We're everything they hate
[Verse 3]
Put on your face
And face another day
It's not a race
You'll hate it either way
And you're out of place
With nothing left to say
So you've changed your pace
It's how its gotta stay
[Verse 4]
You're feeling blue
With everything to do
But you can't move
Theres something wrong with you
That you can't see
For years you let it be
And now I'm me
I'm past the point of clean
[Outro]
From here on out
With all I've got
I want you to
Hate my guts
