I refuse to live a life in ignorance of all that you don39;t see
If only fear could make us curious maybe we’d have more empathy
And oh, the whispers turn to shouts
It’s time for you to listen to the kids before the world burns down
This is the realization
And I’m so tired of waiting
While you all sit around
I guess we’ll figure it out
I guess we’ll figure it out
It doesn’t have to be like this, yeah don’t we live in a democracy?
To be so numb to violence every day what a country that we lead
And oh, Jesus would be proud
To love your neighbor as yourself until they ask to use different pronouns
This is the realization
And I’m so tired of waiting
While you all sit around
I guess we’ll figure it out
I guess we’ll figure it out
This is the realization
To be part of a solution
Just wish I knew how
I hope we figure it out
I hope we figure it out
Why can’t we figure it out
Is it really that hard to care about us?
Will you need dollars to count
While you watch our world while it turns to dust?
Why can’t we figure it out (Is it really that hard to realize)
Is it really that hard to care about us? (Is it really that hard just to be kind)
Will you need dollars to count (Is it really that hard to empathize)
While you watch our world while it turns to dust? (Is it really that hard, is it really that hard)
Why can’t we figure it out (Is it really that hard to realize)
Is it really that hard to care about us? (Is it really that hard just to be kind)
Will you need dollars to count (Is it really that hard to empathize)
While you watch our world while it turns to dust? (Is it really that hard, is it really that hard)
Why can’t we figure it out (Is it really that hard to realize)
Is it really that hard to care about us? (Is it really that hard just to be kind)
Will you need dollars to count (Is it really that hard to empathize)
While you watch our world while it turns to dust? (Is it really that hard, is it really that hard)

I’ve been in so much pain
I try to dance it away
Yeah, turn some Kacey or some Sufjan on so I can turn off again
It’s getting harder to see
Just what you’re doing to me
I can’t tell if this is love or abuse, but it’s all starting to feel the same
I’ll internalize it, when everything has been going wrong (Internalize)
You can get away with anything cause I’d rather be with you than alone (Rather be with you)
But when I’m gone (When I’m gone oh no)
You won’t know what to do (Won’t know what to do)
You’ll just internalize it, and maybe you’ll feel something new
Something new
They don’t want to hear me talk about this
All my feelings have worn thin
When all these powerful men have more money than emotions
It’s no wonder we’re in the state that we’re in
And I know I’m not alone in feeling like we’re fucked
I just know there’s not a lot we can do
I guess I’ll change myself before it’s too late
Before I end up just like you (End up just like you)
And just internalize it, when everything has been going wrong (Internalize)
You can get away with anything cause I’d rather be with you than alone (Rather be with you)
But when I’m gone (When I’m gone oh no)
You won’t know what to do (Won’t know what to do)
You’ll just internalize it, and maybe you’ll feel something new
