How could we know
We'd rearrange all the cosmos? Mm
We crashed, and we burned
Now I just can't go where you don't go
And usually, I'm
****ed up, anxious, too much
But I'll love you like you need me to
Imperfect for you
Messy, completely distressed
But I'm not like that since I met you
Imperfect for you
The nights are cool and I'm a fool
Each star's a pool of water, cool water
And with the dawn I'll wake and yawn
And carry on to water
Cool, clear water
The shadows sway and seem to say
"Tonight we pray for water, cool water"
And way up there He'll hear our prayer
And show us where there's water
Cool, clear water
Shortest straw
Challenge liberty, downed by law
Live in infamy, rub you raw
Witchhunt riding through
Shortest straw
The shortest straw has been pulled for you
I did my time, and I want out
So effusive fade, it doesn't cut
The soul is not so vibrant
The reckoning, the sickening
Packaging subversion
Pseudo-sacrosanct perversion
Go drill your deserts, go dig your graves
Then fill your mouth with all the money you will save
Sinking in, getting smaller again
I'm done, it has begun, I'm not the only one
I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the God that failed
We are the dregs of the western world
The steroid boys and video girls
We are the viral internet stars
And the anchor man can't stop crying
We are the dead with the dreaded disease
The nuclear sons for you and me
Let's go all right, all right, let's go
What the **** are you saying?
Now I don't wanna live here anymore
(Gonna watch it burn)
We are the best and we'll fight to the death
There's nothing left worth fighting for
In the western world
This is the end of evolution's rise
The feeding frenzy of the uncivilized
The paparazzi parasites
And the vultures can't stop feeding
This is the face of our vanity
The tabloid death of inhumanity
Let's go all right, all right, let's go
What the **** are you saying?
Now I don't wanna live here anymore
(Gonna watch it burn)
We take the best and we spit out the rest
And always leave 'em wanting more
In the western world
We are the dregs of the western world
The steroid boys and video girls
We are the viral internet stars
And the anchor man can't stop lying
We are the dead with the dreaded disease
The nuclear sons for you and me
Let's go all right, all right, let's go (let's go)
What the **** are you saying?
Now I don't wanna live here anymore
(Gonna watch it burn)
We are the best and we'll fight to the death
There's nothing left worth fighting for
Now I don't wanna live here anymore
(Gonna watch it burn)
We take the best and we spit out the rest
And always leave 'em wanting more
In the western world
In the western world
In the western world
I see your faces and I do not understand why
Each time I dream you're standin' there, right by my side
Why do you make me? You take my pride and in my eyes
You kinda **** me... Inside
I have no place to run
And hide
I have no place to hide
Which I like
