To preface these lyrics, I will say only that I love this song because it talks about the direness of humanity so truthfully, yet not without acknowledging that we have hope beyond our human condition. I hope you take the time to let the words sink into your mind and stir your heart.

I don't know why I feed on emotion
There's a stomach inside my brain
I don't want to be heard, I want to be listened to
Does it bother anyone else that someone else has your name?
I scream, you scream, we all scream
'Cause we're terrified of what's around the corner
We stay in place 'cause we don't want to lose our lives
So let's think of something better
