[Instrumental buildup] [Intro, whisper] Turn the lights off, go away. I can't do it anymore, not today. Leave me to rot in the corners of my home, I don't want this world, leave me alone. [forte] [prechorus] The sun is out but it's dark in space, Try all you want but it's still a rat race. [chorus] What's the point in being alive, When it takes everything just to survive? I was born too late to explore the world, And born too soon to explore the stars, But I was born just in time to watch everything else fall apart. [verse] Too many elderly people hanging on, The youth's wealth they hope to cash investment on, A healthcare-welfare built just for them, A ponzi scheme to which our future generations are condemned. [verse] The purpose of this is the hamster wheel, Keeping older folks alive is simply overkill, I won't ever see a penny of my retirement, So who the hell does my work even represent? [pre-chorus] The sun is out but it's dark in space, Try all you want but it's still a rat race. [chorus] [verse] If my effort will not matter why then should I try? I can wait out inflation by my bedside. I can be as productive as policymakers are, I can retire from this life and be a neet. [verse] I don't need a car, I don't need a phone, I don't need a job, a wife, a child, or a home. I just need a quilt, a sofa, and a room, I can lie around all day and night in my doomer tomb. [chorus] [bridge] If the world is falling apart, I don't want to try, I don't want to start. If we all know the downfall soon impends, Then just wake me up after it all ends. What's the point in being alive? [verse] Global pollution caused by China, Nuclear war threatened by Iran and Russia, A.I. Insurgency helped make this song, And I'm supposed to think it's been status quo all along? [verse] The sheep still cannot see the flaws, The writing is painted on the wall, With the blood of the youth it has been scrawled, I've been blackpilled, I can see the fall. [chorus] [outro]
