[Verse 1] I think we like to create because somehow we were created/ I think we like to create because someday we'll be cremated/ With only a blank slate to tell our tales/ Rest in peace doesn't even start to detail/ The life, the fate, the scale, the weight of the experience/ We talk, talk, talk, but who is really hearing us?/ I mean we even created a man who created man/ But really we are the lamb/ The son of god/ f** it we're all god/ Or at least becoming him/ This world is gonna be heaven/ Whenever the love sets in/ We just gotta get there/ It's not fair that violence can be ma** produced/ But what happens in the sheets needs to be silenced and left aloof/ The truth is, life just isn't fair/ It's something we're told/ But really don't wanna hear/ So here we are, far from the truth/ Going all in like I gotta nothing to lose/ Trying to fit in like a new pair of shoes/ You know you used to think I was cool/ But then one thing changes and you look right through me/ A ghoul, I'mma ghost, I'm ghastly/ But in the end I'mma haunter/ Cause ya walk right past me/ Best friend conner/ Grew up fast, he skipped one grade/ And a friendship everlasting deteriorates/ Living in different states sure will put the brakes on reconnecting/ And yet it still could've worked/ Cause there's this thing called texting/ [Verse 2] I don't know if you heard about it/ Or if it just wasn't being done at the time/ But it seems like you just left/ Without a thought in your mind about me/ Or the simplicity of being friends/ I guess all good things gotta come to an end/ It's not like it bothers me/ sh** happens for a reason/ But sometimes that part of my life/ Seems like the first season to a show that never picked up/ The pilot aired/ But we must have slipped up/ Said our lines wrong/ Cause the audience thinks the shows too long/ Too boring/ Not enough excitement/ Where's the real story? But that's what makes it more real than anything/ Not everyone is living a life of luxury/ So f** a three star rating/ My life is five stars the critics are just hating/ Memories fading/ I try to hold on/ Words in my head/ Better bold the font/ That way it'll stick out/ I don't wanna be a dick about it/ But things just aren't the same/ I wouldn't be surprised if you called me the wrong name/ Like “hey.. uh.. Brandon right?”/ Yeah man, sure, you've only known me your whole life/ So why not hand me a knife, you already cut me off/ We don't talk, don't connect/ Dots left at the end of a sentence/ [Verse 3] And this is where there's an awkward silence/ Because I really just don't know what to say anymore/ And deep in my core I can feel the uncertainty/ Will this friendship really last an eternity/ Or are we burning our feet/ Trying to walk on hot coals/ Careful where you step/ Might burn your soul/ Might burn a J/ Like my last name Cole/ But truth be told/ I don't even need to/ Mind clearer than ever/ That's why I can see through the whole crew/ It's a Motley one/ With pot leaf's son/ And when you remove that factor is everyone done?/ I guess we'll find out in due time/ The climb is rough/ But the view at the top of this mountain is enough for me/ Not a bluff, cards on the table for all to see/ Maybe I'm just thinking too much/ But some fools can seem shady/ My friends like a family of brady's/ Seems we got a whole bunch/ But a hunch tells me otherwise/ I'd like to hear the truth/ But all I'm seeing is lies in some lives/ Are we really alive/ or just here to survive/ Sorry to dive into the deep end/ But if we aren't getting deep/ Then we really aren't friends/ It's a steep thing to say/ But when I can't sleep a peep/ These are the things I lay awake and debate about/ All of it's in your head/ They say I'm crazy now/ Phasing out/ He's not all there/ Is he depressed/ Should we be scared/ [Verse 4] Of course not/ These are thoughts I think we all wonder/ Deep under the mask we wear to protect our own a**/ I think I'm growing up to fast/ It was nice being a kid/ But vast is our life/ The past is our vice/ The earth our crash site/ The sun our flashlight/ But we still remain blind/ Just claiming to see/ Give me a second… I gotta breathe/ But whether you're wearing gla**es or contacts/ The fact remains/ The amount of contacts in your phone don't mean a damn thing/ Especially when you calling them lames behind the scenes/ Take out the ‘r', and friends become fiends/ I think that ‘r' stands for respect/ Because without it how can you keep things in check/ Man I'm a wreck/ Not to say I don't feel good I feel great/ But with all this hate around/ Somebody's gotta conversate about what's going down/ I meant converse but it didn't rhyme didn't sound good/ So I said f** it this time and just did what I could/ Pile of wood and I'm the flame to start it/ Got off track, I just Mario Kart it/ Can't look back at what's already departed/ Just look ahead and put your heart in everything you can/ Brendan, Mugen, it doesn't matter/ It comes from the same place after all/ This craft is my call/ Small raft but I won't fall/ And even if I do/ I'll swim not sink/
