lyrics

I don't wanna see it, why we gotta worry?
Stop my ears to sound and close my eyes to fury
If you try to capture images of me now
I'm moving too fast, you'll find they turn out blurry

Fun and fancy free
I'll pretend it's normal if that's what you want, so
Please don't cry for me
Wish me all the best; forget all the rest
Fun and fancy free
Let's pretend it's normal, just so we can cope
Please don't cry for me

I just gotta stay in motion
Keep my head on a swivel
Turn off all the news, and the hate, and the ignorant lies and the drivel
I just stay in a man-cave
I just act like a caveman
I just got a new pair of skates
So you better stay out of my way man
I am still on fire
I am in denial
If you wanna party
Throw me on the pile
I don't understand it
I don't really want to
And when I'm a ghost
I promise I will haunt you

Oh
Maybe if it's fake
If it's just not real
Maybe there's a way
To stunt the fear I feel
To go back to the store
To head back to the beach
To get to the salon
And if I enter the breach, then
Please don't cry for me
Ignorance is bliss, and I've got it in spades, so
Please don't cry for me
What I don't know can't hurt me, so
Please don't cry for me
How could they reduce my right to get a spray-tan!?
Please don't cry for me
Dying free is just dying

Please don't cry for me
Not too bright upstairs, but still, I have my values
Please don't cry for me
Cry for all the ones I'm going to infect
Please don't cry for me
I live in denial, I live in denial

Dystopio EP
by mtvghosts

Love songs are so common these days. But . MTVGhost's Dystopio EP is a great inversion of this idea; it shows the decline of an unhealthy relationship, and the writing is powerful, yet simple. Don Kongo
