about

I don't want to talk about it

lyrics

Sometimes you'll see me 'round talkin' 'bout the things that I don't even see
But I need to believe in them
Because if I don't
I'm an average prick
Every time the sun is up I kinda start to feel like the pressure's on
And I need some time alone
I'd rather pretend like it needs me for energy

So I grab my head
Force myself to just get out of bed
And re-envision all my stupid shit
Pretend it's better 'cause it's artistic
I guess I've seen some shit
For a white kid who is just perfect
I guess it's time to please head illness
As if I'm even really worth that trick

Bangin' your head against the wall
You know you're all okay
You know you're all okay
Think about it for a min, you're better than this
You know you're all okay
You may be sick but you're okay

When you're mental royalty you're really not inclined to see the things that are real
The things insignificant
They have their worth but you doubt it all the time
There are days I long to live in a house that I never did and yet all the while
The comfort is hard to leave
I claim to need sleep, but I like it for the dreams

Bangin' your head against the wall
You know you're all okay
You know you're all okay
Think about it for a min, you're better than this
You know you're all okay
You may be sick but you're okay

Yako la roy won ee
Sith, nath, retteb roy nim a roaf ti tahba kneeth,
Yako la roy won ee
Yako la roy won ee
La, aw eth, tsnigah deah roy, nigna-ib
