Rabbit Hole

First steps down the rabbit hole
Digging deeper into my soul
Trying to make it seem justified
Late nights spent going deeper inside
Trying to backtrack through my mind
It all happened at the speed of light
I want to believe what I've read is true
The great awakening, the great taboo
First steps down the rabbit hole
Digging deeper into my soul
Social media seems so contrived
Youtube comments just hate revived
More mad theories than I can handle
On and on like the Bermuda triangle
Its all in and time consuming
It kind of feels like the great undoing
First steps down the rabbit hole
I'm digging deeper I'm digging down
I'm not sure what I will find
First steps down the rabbit hole
I'm digging deeper I'm digging down
I'm not sure what I will find
A rumour inside my mind

Spent a long time trying to
understand who I am
Followed all the crowds
Followed all the trends
Overthinking everything you do
Like aspiring actors about to make their debut
The mind was constantly confused like going to war
Like a lot of the youth that's been and gone before
You don't have a past that you can be defined by
A future full of hopes to be explored
Youthful exuberance, innocence of youth
Its something to marvel,
Its not something you choose
Oh its great to be young
Oh its great to be young
Its great to be young
to feel free
to explore
to do as you please
Its great to be young
to feel free
its only the beginning
a new me
Oh its great to be young
Oh its great to be young

We weren't even trying
It happened so quickly
You've got to relax
And please take it easy
Its history of a kind
With all the pictures
its just life,
but it doesn't make it easier
Its starting to feel like the world is closing in
Its starting to feel like we are coming to the end
To put on a brave face
To pretend your happy
I'm not even jealous
and I don't want pity
Recreation of youth
is expected
Our world is burning
Is it the right choice
Its starting to feel like the world is closing in
Its starting to feel like we are coming to the end
Its starting to feel like the world is closing in
Its starting to feel like we are coming to the end of time

Here we are trying to make it work
We got the deposit and we picked our home
There's nothing you can do about it
There's nothing you can do
When the system favours those abroad
The coporate elite and those with second homes
There's nothing you can do about it
There's nothing you can do
You can try to change it all
But there's nothing you can do this time
When all you want is a little support
A government to believe, a government to trust
There's nothing you can do about it
There's nothing you can do
We are sick of all the soundbites
The broken promises, the constant lies
There's nothing you can do about it
There's nothing you can do
We must sit around and watch our future fade away before our eyes
Before our eyes
Watch our future fade away before our eyes
There's nothing you can do about it even if we try
We are no longer in control, we've just got to roll the dice
