The planet is dying
And we get colder every day
My best friend can't
Afford the transplant
They've needed since second grade
Your sons and your daughters
Born north of the border
Could still end up in a cage
And if they are lucky
They'll make it to 18
And struggle their whole life
Just living on minimum wage
This picture gets clearer
On every black mirror
And by all accounts
Nothing should matter
Except breaking patterns
And figuring all of this
Wretched shit out
So why (tell me why, tell me why, tell me why)
Can't I (why can't I, why can't I, why can't I)
Think about
Anyone else but me
Can't think about anyone else but me
And all of the things I want
All of the things I need
How somebody did me wrong
How terrible it must be
Anyone else but me
Can't think about anyone else but me (you selfish prick)
I'm trying so damn hard
If fighting with Twitter trolls
Counts as trying at all
Don't get me wrong
I give five dollars a month
To Planned Parenthood
Because the work they do is good
But are my motivations
To mask my hesitations
And make myself feel better
For not doing more?
Anyone else but me
Can't think about anyone else but me
What is going on? (what)
What the fuck is wrong (the fuck)
With me but not my friends?
Oh there I go again
Anyone else but me
Can't think about anyone else but me
Why oh why
Can't I oh I
Think about anybody else
Or maybe, just humor me here —
Maybe this is therapy
Maybe you're all hearing me
Maybe you feel like I do
This is the oxygen (this is the oxygen)
Falling from the overheard bin (overhead bin)
And I can't help you
If I can't first help me too
Is selfcare so selfish?
Oh ain't that some real shit
That I feel so guilty
For feeling so human
Come join my world
Come join my world
Come join our world and
Let's be human
Together
