Oh Please
Metric
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
