引き籠もり (Hikikomori)

I try to leave my home, but I don’t want to be heartbroken again, so why should I even bother to try with something like that. I don’t know how to talk to anyone, let alone someone like you. I’ll just stay home and eventually die alone.
I don’t know why I write these shitty songs. I don’t know why I try. I don’t know why I write these shitty songs. No one will care about them after I’m gone.
And all my friends have packed up and left. They’ve moved on with their lives. I wish I could do the same, but I think I’d rather just die. Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo (2spook4me)

You change your profile picture and pat yourself on the back saying, I made a difference. But all I hear is look at me, don’t I matter.
Where are you gonna be in two weeks, when everyone’s forgotten about this? Will you forget too?
You only hear what you’re told. You only see what you’re shown. How can you say you make a difference?
How have you changed anything? You people treat tragedies like fashion statements. Always gotta stay in vogue.

Wearing a button-down flannel, black socks hide the holes in my shoes. I just wanted to make a good impression; it's obvious I don’t know what to do. Now I’m two beers deep at the bar wondering if you ever planned to show. Feeling like a fool because I’m amazed it even got this far.

Let’s sit at home and bitch on our high speed internet. About why it’s their fault we’re not happy, and never take responsibility for anything we do.
Let’s sit at home and bitch on our high speed internet. About how we’re so oppressed because mom won’t buy us everything we want. Living comfortably in our suburban homes.

I made it to the top then found I was terrified of heights. Now I feel so goddamn worthless every single night. When I feel down, I just feel worse. I guess that’s par for the course. There’s few things that make me feel better, like staring out at shitty weather.
My friends are calling me Humphrey, because I’m Bogarting this joint. I really should do something with my life, but I just can’t see the point. I didn’t even want to get high today, now I just had nothing to do. Maybe if I didn’t smoke so much pot, I wouldn’t feel like such a tool.
Every day I’ll try a little harder, to make my life that much better. If today beats out yesterday, I guess I can stay around.
Sometimes I wonder if I’d be happier sticking needles in my veins, or if I’d be a kinder man with some pills messing with my brain. I used to keep all this inside, run away, try to hide. Now I think I’ll let it out, with these songs I can’t sing but shout.
Every day I’ll try a little harder, to make my life that much better. If today beats out yesterday, I guess I can stay around.
