Lyrics

Oh Please

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.

Oh please, don't attempt to placate me

Or decide in advance how the chorus should go

Pure fear is a common theme through line

Most don't even hope to approach the threshold

An old soul cries like a baby

I still willfully ignorant live

I paint the walls in slim shady

Hell stalls forever whatever it is

It got bad, it got so bad lately

Wildfires under-perform centerfolds

To inflate exaggerate greatly

Stoke fear to drive the directionless home

I thought this this was just what everyone did

I thought this was just how everyone lived

I thought this this was just what everyone did

I thought this was just how everyone lived

Oh please, don't attempt to placate me

Tall hallmark phrases that roll off the tongue

Re-frame a regrettable outcome

Stimulate a forgettable doll when you're done

They're all teeth the cowardly bite me

Imitation, the worst kind of flattery

Kids in cold blood on the bullet train take me

I can kill with my eyes and I'm murdering

I thought this this was just what everyone did

I thought this was just how everyone lived

I thought this this was just what everyone did

I thought this was just how everyone lived

Off that axis, got here solo

Me and my reverse vertigo

Off that axis, got here solo

Me and my reverse vertigo

I thought this this was just what everyone did

I thought this was just how everyone lived

I thought this this was just what everyone did

I thought this was just how everyone lived

Let's go
