lyrics

I was born inside the sun eating oxygen instead of helium
Like every other fucker I constantly question my own existence

Smile real big and ask The Infinity,
"Why do I feel the need to be? Why do I care if people love me?"
"who am I? Where am I from? What happens when you die?"

The Infinity laughs at me,
"I cannot answer you for you already know"
That's what he said, he said to me

Do I hate all my friends or do I hate myself?
I guess that awful question answers itself
A voice calls out to me from the closet, is it a monster?
It says,
"Get your coat on lazybones! Get out of bed!
Do something with your life while you're still alive!"

Get your coat on lazybones.
