Cabbage 02:19
It’s not your fault you're always leaving On my own I'm barely breathing And I’m alone again Nausea and stiff neck With double vision I’m paralyzed in this house As your voice fades into a whisper I’m wondering Who will find me? I’m alone I’m afraid
2.
So this is considered art? Imagine your failures on display Come on let’s gather round And critique the masquerade Let’s put the jazz back in the coffin Turn it around and wheel me out I’ve always been hypercritical Turn it around and wheel me out
3.
Forget what you’ve learned We hold ourselves to a higher standard Just drain it and burn No consequences for your distractions Fixated on growth, ignoring the beauty in common sense Sometimes you have to stand up for some things in this world Hush now don’t speak a word You’ve failed before and you’ll surely fail again It’s how you return Stronger than when you began Our reality is romanticized We’re all corrupt We have a price Ego for criticism Deficiencies are publicized How will you feel As you sleep tonight? Be depressed, discouraged, disheartened by failure. You will be let down forever With corruption and greed, with bad policy I’m dreaming and dreaming and dreaming for someone to save me We’re all corrupt, we’re all diseased Awake now, will this day be kind to me?

Tell me what do you really need? You were the one who always had the advantage Looking down from a different point of view Everything’s gone when you thought that you had it Doing more is your only commitment Hang yourself with your self contentment You are free from responsibility Something as simple as undermining me Present yourself as someone who really cares Say the right things to the right people State you’ve changed and that you’re so different I know you and I know that you haven’t These words fall on empty ears You might be present but you’re not here You’re a liar and that’s okay Still gotta sleep at the end of the day
5.
It’s easier this time Understanding why You always come back to me And I can’t understand the pain I hope I never have to explain my actions of today I think it’s time to address these thoughts There’s gotta be a connection It can’t always be dark These ligaments will tear My organs will fail Just another struggle no one can see It’s over I’m never coming back You’ve identified my body and I’m sorry for that I couldn’t keep up the fight, I’m selfish I know Just scatter my ashes in your garden I’ll help your plants grow Let me help your plants grow
