[Verse 1]
You have the right to wipe the smiles off the face
Of every single smug motherfucker
Who ever told you you’d be less than you became (yeah)
The more I take from you the less I can illogically hold on to
A simple equation, and no one is to blame
[Pre-Chorus]
But I don't wanna think about the ways that we're just watching ourselves decay
Decay, I'd like to
Run around in circles
'Til I find myself brand new way to run around in circles
[Chorus]
Hey, how’s the view up there?
If I were you, I think that I'd be scared
And think, of all that could go wrong
By the time I write the end of this song
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
You - aw, man
You have a job to
Align yourself with people who believe that you can be better
While also constantly making you feel like you're home
Positive internal dialogue is potentially a cliche reference
For this part of this type of song
But once I improved mine I feel generally less alone
[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't wanna think about the ways
That were just watching ourselves decay
We’re always changing
Run around in circles 'til I find myself a brand
Blee blah blah blo bah the same thing about the circles
[Chorus]
Hey, how’s the view up there?
If I were you, I think that I'd be scared
And think, of all that could go wrong
By the time I write the end of this song
Alright, alright
