about

Cats keep me sane.

lyrics

Can't Fail It For The Cats

uh, its hard to be excited for the future
lookin like tomorrows a let down, 
rents due the 1st, out of work for a month 
drinking too much, and nothings enough to get up before one.
only motive thats left is these cats, that i love, 
keep em fed, let em claw the couch to death, and be happy, 
and thats all that keeps me sane, 
if not for them id be halfway to another 4th floor psychward

laugh the past off and rethink
how the hell do i pretend its ok
that im better friends with a feline than a human being
maybe im finally seeing things wrong on with me?
unable to find a connection with anyone stable enough
to consider me a, person that they can confide in
make some dumb jokes about how this life is a nightmare
at least these cats know that im feeling down,
and out of my mind, 
creatures of comfort always by my side
thru the good and bad times.

human lies are convincing enough to believe things are ok, 
or the world is flat, fuck the youtube for that matter, 
your cult shit is wack, the simulations gone mad, 
and theres no turning back to the past.
its like everyone now thinks their voice really counts
your lack of science is flawed, you dumb fucking coward,
fight for what really matters, let cats have the bed, 
while we lay our heads on linoleum floors
dream of becoming a servant to 4 legged alien creatures,
begging for freedumb, 

its like every 7 years we get new cells,a brand new suit,
a new chance to change everything i used to hate about me. 
focus more on the future, and mental stability,
but in a world where opinions are facts now 
and my ignorant self doesnt follow everyones channel,
i cant grasp the times to help myself til its too late
imagine this life with 9 lives to make it right,
i feel like i keep changing minds,
and starting over all the time
it never does get easier, 
but at least theres a few things left to hold,
that always turn the day around,
together watching upside down

ive been trying to make any sense of this existence
but im missing the link between this plane
and the meaning to my dreams
i just hope we'll all be fine together,
beginning to understand,
if not for us,  I cant fail it for the cats

unfiltered news and god fearing humans
why the fuck are we still this stupid? 
dont you get it? these blue lives dont matter,
upholding the law thru a racist systemic pattern
why would your god allow this madness?
phony good-doers hiding behind absolution
its easier now to see lies than ever before
But the system still fuck us over?
but we keep excusing this hate,
grasp the times to help ourselves before its too late
their objective is them first us last
just keep war out the plan so my cats have a chance.
