I'm gonna' try a different way of posting these...
"Perfect Idiots"
-Rick, "RiCterMan," Strayer, fecit.
Some people wander in their lives unfolding, but still shut.
-Ripping out hearts when, truly, self is all they've got,
and lost in ugliness they don't observe the fools that they are.
There's more to life than an ego. They aren't pure.
(Pre-Chor.):
But still, they walk the Earth,
slightly slouching inside.
In fantasy, they rule the Earth.
-a fantasy of lies, unrealized.
(Chorus):
Do you laugh at, or look down upon
those you feel you have surpassed,
In the rankings that you glorify?
-Rankings that came from out of your ass.
If so, you need to face fact.
I have pondered how their lives, so moldy, don't rot off.
Living apart, when only gain, is lost. They "drop and lock,"
into a chest, golden treasures.
-The souls they've marked. How can they look and label? Their sight is blurred.
(Pre-Chor.)
(Chorus)
(Short Interlude, envisioned, then words to Bridge):
They are perfectly imperfect.
-Idiots. -Ruthless.
-Perfectly imperfect.
Self is all they serve.
(Chorus; last line omitted, except for the words, "if so")
(Additional Chorus):
I'll grab the mat; I can't welcome you in.
For those who feel like God, just pass me by.
Take your rankings that you glorify,
and make sure to pat yourself on the back.
congratulations; You are ignorant to fact.

General Idea of these lyrics:
Honestly, I can't stand today's society... Most dudes are pricks, and most girls are
bitchy. I can never figure it out. But I know the way that I always try to treat others, and
that's to be as genuinely real as I can be. It's kind of pathetic to me, that I rarely run into
other genuine people. It's like society is drowning in shittiness... But oh well, I guess. Cheers, everyone! |
