Sure it's enticing to proclaim you're better
Than the "yuppies" who engage in some fake game that never mattered to me
But there's no value in perpetuating
This facade: it's not monotonous to constantly uphold the routine
Spending lunches with myself
Slogging straight home after class
Keeping weekends free and earbuds in to ward off opportunities for cordial advance
Wake up
Phone in
Fulfill your function
Graduate
Thought I might give a shit
But I'm ambivalent
To all I've known drifting away
Hate to admit I fit the demographic
Plain white kids born into stagnant suburbs, middle class, and needlessly stressed
As far as I can tell my sole distinctions
Were delusions that I'm different for which chemicals I choose to ingest
In the end, we're all the same
Model homes and families
But awareness of cliches fueled my desire to seek out seperate social scene
Wake up
Phone in
Fulfill your function
Graduate
Thought I might give a shit
But I'm ambivalent
To all I've known drifting away
No future here
Three cheers for four discarded years
No future here
Three cheers for four discarded years
No future here
Three cheers for four discarded years
No future here
Three cheers for four discarded years
I'm not gonna pander for acceptance from the in crowd
Dropping $600 a summer for a tour de Grant Park blackout
I'm the designated driver whilst they pull trig in the backseat
Because acting superficial means that superficial people like me
