Detachment and the irony of gifts/burdens
lyrics
Well I’m accidentally occidental, potentially a little bit temperamental, and essentially these days have been uneventful to me
Well all my possessions are feeling oppressive, I’m possessive of depression but that’s just a repressive, and the less I press the more I can be expressive, and free
And I’m wasting my life, questioning the meaning of it
And I’m trying hard to enjoy myself, but if I try to hard it all falls to bits
My secrets, I’m giving them away
My regrets, I’m giving them away
My B.S., I’m giving it away
My subscriptions I’m giving them away
My addictions, I’m giving them away
My convictions, I’m giving them away
So fill your life with burgers and beer, the competitions, politicians, romance and gear, and you’ll never have to focus long enough to find out what you fear to be
Well all this money is bringing me down, and I’ll never be funny and singing ‘round the campfire, in love with you
And I’m just wasting my life, questioning the meaning of it
And I’m just trying hard to enjoy myself, but if I try to hard it all fades a bit
My vanity, I’m giving it away
My sanity, I’m giving it away
My humanity, I’m giving it away
My consciense I’m giving them away
My conscious, I’m giving them away
My control, I’m giving them away
So I gotta lotta love and I’m gonna spread it, and I’m not taking sides, cause Reagan said that you can go anywhere if you don’t care about the credit, get it
So take my song and play it loud, and if I hear it on the radio I’ll be proud, take this song I’m giving it away
And I’ll still be wasting my life, questioning the meaning of it
And I’ll still be trying hard to enjoy myself, but if I try to hard it all goes to shit
My hope, I’m giving it away
My dread, I’m giving it away
My memories, I’m giving them away
My love, I’m giving it away
My fear, I’m giving it away
My future, I’m giving it away
My guitar, I’m giving them away
My vocals, I’m giving them away
La la la la la, la la la la la
