Lyrics
Zoo
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I can no longer watch tv
Cause that shit really melts my brain
I think i'm what they call sensitive
And easily thrown off my game
All that bloodshed and pettiness
Just makes the world seem so insane
And i just feel drained
When i go to do my food shopping
And all i can see is the packaging
One big mountain of garbage
About to be happening
And i walk past my own self-loathing
Like i walk past animals in the zoo
Trying not to really see them
And the prison they didn't choose
If i should ever quit your spotlight
I hope you won't think me wrong
Says the poet to the moonlight
Says the singer to the song
It's enough just to stay upright
Upright in every single way
Pour your love into your children
Until there's nothing left to say
Pour your love into your children
Until there's nothing left to say
