I could walk a mile I could
Throw it all away if I could
molt out my skin but I would
Be too much of a sight to see

So you set the dates I’m always late to
I search for things you can relate to
At least we agree about the bad weather
It’s not like it’s getting any better

Either you jump out
Of the car or you take the wheel and drive it into the water
I heard if you think
you can just wait and see you're just being led to the slaughter
Maybe I jump out
The nearest window don’t be worried I was just kidding
I’d never do it
Just an intrusive thought
I don’t blame it

If we ever make it out
The way it’s set up I may doubt
But on the off chance we survive
We better live like we’re not dying
Get connections get your clout
In case we ever make it out
On the off chance we survive
We better live like we’re not dying

Not that you should believe every headline
They say we're running out of time to live full lives
Thinking I need people with me while the world is destroyed
Holding hands into the fire like toys

But no one has the time to be a talker
I should but I make a total mockery of
So-called busy weeks and empty weekends
Spent scrolling down feeds and silently screaming

Either you jump out
Of the car or you take the wheel and drive it into the water
I heard if you think
you can just wait and see you're just being led to the slaughter
Either I go on
Or I despair that the best I can do may not even matter
Better the former but all the evidence tends towards the latter

But if we ever make it out
The way it’s set up I may doubt
But on the off chance we survive
We better live like we’re not dying
Focus on what matters now
In case we ever make it out
On the off chance we survive
We better live like we’re not dying

So we resist
Repeat the same rhetoric
Can’t get on the streets
Find ways to spread the sentiment
The future’s so bleak and I’m so tired
Trying to ignore the stakes getting higher
Can’t we find love break up like real humans
Think about other stuff like they did
Relying on each other if the world can't get better
I still need a reason to believe that we will

Ever make it out
The way it’s set up I may doubt
But on the off chance we survive
We better live like we’re not dying

Get mad as hell but they just take it
They won’t be around to watch us try and make it out
