[Verse 1] The sun is coming out, come to force me up The machines are on, maybe they've had enough I don't wanna work, so i'll watch the screens, Consume media, and also calories, From dawn till dusk, in the same place Don't care about my friends, haven't moved my face But now I'm bored as hell, guess I'll take some stuff Parent's wouldn't care, they trust me too much [Chorus 1] I am alone in the universe It's not a question that i could have done much worse I am alone in the universe It's not a question that i could have done much worse And through the fire, and through the night, I'll listen to music by the lamp light, I'll sit here, with my blue pills, waste away, Like I know I will, [Verse 2] Not what I want, but I have to, I'll take more, then I'm supposed to, It couldn't really, be that bad, I could hurt myself, that's a fact But the other ones, Maybe I could, built up a tolerance, they wouldn't be to good I'll do what they want, It will ease the day without the pill, it's very hard to say [Chorus 2] I am alone in the universe It's not a question that i could have done much worse I am alone in the universe It's not a question that i could have done much worse And through the fire, and through the night, I'll keep writing my math by the lamp light, I'll sit here, with my orange pills, waste away, Like I know I will, [Interlude layer 1] I'm okay with it, I'm okay with it, I'm okay with it, I swear that I'm okay with it, I'm okay with it, I'm okay with it, I'm okay with it, I swear that I'm okay with it, I'm okay with it?, I'm okay with it, I'm okay with it, I'm sure that I'm okay with it I'm okay with it? Am I okay with it? I'm not okay with it, I swear I'm not okay with! [Interlude layer 2] {nothing for first 8 bars} Even if I'm not, It doesn't matter still I should get used to it, Or else nobody will I need the confidence, I havent had my fill I need the insurance, I need to take my pill [Chorus 3] I am alone in the universe It's not a question that i could have done much worse I am alone in the universe It's not a question that i could have done much worse And through the fire, and through the night, I'll play here with my brain by the lamp light, I'll sit here, with my special pills, waste away, Like I know I will,

One day, I know everything I've lost will just Turn up, for better or worse and I know that, everything I've ever found will Fall back, and I'll never see it again For what can I do, when all my gold is gone You can build a house of happiness, but it wont last for long If You Can't be sure that there's happiness left I'll go back to the woods, and I'll save all my breath, for Something, that really matters, for Something, That I'm not quite sure about Hellooo Hellooo Saving up rainclouds can help for a while And if you want then rain clouds can bring you smiles So laugh it up while you still can, It isn't like I have a plan To get the rest of our souls out I'll try Wait till we die make sure to say Hi Are we still alive? I'll test all my mircales with blood sweat and tears and I'll gripe with my wine about my youth years when I hit the button I'll be sure to be quick, when I exit with smiles I'll make you all sick But hopefully in the best way that I can, don't cry for me because I'm in a better land While the Sun Falls, under the windows I'll laugh out, colored white pillows Hellooo Hellooo Sometimes, I look at the breeze, And I Feel so, weak at my knees while I Sit here, dying of thirst, I almost can't wait, to get to my herse the notes in your purse It happened the worst! I knew I was first! I'll take it I'll take it all, Take it, I'll take it all Take it, I'll Take it all Take it all, take at I'll Go here, under the blossoms, it's so weird, feels like tommarrow I don't fear, the other side of iron gates I won't hear the bells of the earth quake I'll Know, when it comes to that you know, I'm not coming back
