People II: The Reckoning Lyrics
Nobody knows everything, we know this to be true
Everything is difficult, except what′s in front of you
But, it's complicated, even under your nose
Bullshit math equations, and your highs, and your lows
And your manic depression, it comes, and it goes
Your parasympathetic nervous system, reacts
And you′re in fight, or flight mode
How's the world so small, when the world is so large?
And what made the world, could I please speak to who's in charge?
Everything is real, but, it′s also just as fake
From your daughter′s birthday party to your grandmother's wake
And your bipolar illness, it comes, and it goes
You parasympathetic nervous system, reacts
And you′re in fight, or flight
You're in fight, or flight
You′re in fight, or flight mode
I've tried to know which words to sing, so many times
And I′ve tried to know which chords to play
And I've tried to make it rhyme
And I've tried to find the key, that all good songs are in
And I′ve tried to find the notes, to make that great resounding din
But, there′s a bad man in everyone, no matter who we are
There's a rapist, and a Nazi, living in our tiny hearts
Child pornographers, and cannibals, and politicians, too
There′s someone in your head waiting to fucking strangle you
So here's to you, Mrs. Robinson, people love you more, oh never-mind, oh, never-mind
In fucking fact, Mrs. Robinson, the world won′t care whether you live, or die, you live, or die
In fucking fact, Mrs. Robinson, they probably hate to see your stupid face, your stupid face
So here's to you, Mrs. Robinson, you live in an unforgiving place
