Fear and Self-Loathing in Ohio

If angels are real, I can hear their halos collapsing above me
And if the devil is real, i can feel him breathing inside of me
Every day i wake up at 5 A.M., I drive 60 minutes
To see the blank expressions on the faces of pedestrians
I get extremely worried by it
Why are such strong human beings acting in such a way?
What worries me more is questioning myself
Why am i feeling the same?
It seems that a lot of my peers are «bored» with life
I guess all of the distractions around us aren’t enough to keep
Us satisfied anymore
Bored with life
Are we so spoiled as human beings that we can actually be «bored»
With something as beautiful and extraordinary as life?
Maybe we aren’t pushing ourselves hard enough to change this fact
Because, I’m not bored, I’m busy
Oh what i would give to be «bored»
I would rip my heart out of my chest and drag it through
Broken glass to achieve such a goal
But still, i worry
I worry for the future generations who will never know what it’s like
To have a real childhood, the kind that you and i had
We are so fucking consumed by technology
That our brains will be made of computer chips and wires soon enough
But there is still hope
An extremely tiny spec of it, but it’s still floating around somewhere
Waiting.
Wishing.
Praying.
For something better
All words we can relate to and latch on to
If angels are real, I can hear their halos collapsing above me
And if the devil is real, i can feel him breathing inside of me
