A Lesson in Futility

[Verse 1]
Acknowledge the open mouth
But ignore virtue dripping out
A thirst in an endless drought
They'll kill us all
A message now multiplied
What feels like several thousand times
I'll hear yours if you'll hear mine
Against all odds
[Pre-Chorus]
We're all screaming
Are we all just noise, static voices?
Always screaming
Cancel out the noise, the voice
(Are you speaking, can you hear me?)
[Chorus]
No one believes me anyways
I guess I'm better never chasing the dream
Can't you hear me as I
Fade away?
There's always someone else to blame
Don't interrupt me when I'm digging my grave
Can't you hear me as I
Fade away?

[Verse 2]
I'm willing to close the shades
It's dismissive but feels safe
My only choice left to make
It's all I've got
Your words say you're on your own
Signals censored, the truth postponed
Save your tears you're not alone
It's all you've got
[Pre-Chorus]
We're all screaming
Are we all just noise, static voices?
Always screaming
Cancel out the noise, the voice
(Are you speaking, can you hear me?)
[Chorus]
No one believes me anyways
I guess I'm better never chasing the dream
Can't you hear me as I
Fade away?
There's always someone else to blame
Don't interrupt me when I'm digging my grave
Can't you hear me as I
Fade away?
[Bridge]
Are you speaking, can you hear me?
Are you speaking, can you hear me?
No one believes me anyways
I guess I'm better never chasing the dream
Can't you hear me as I
Fade away?
