Survival of the Chillest

When it gets too lonely to adore
 Your autonomy is lovingly ignored
 So you stand inside the roar of everything you've ever wanted
 With all your joy departed
 You challenge my ability
 To find a rhyme in a passive melody
 Well I'd rather be good than lucky
 Since idle hands seem to beg for everything
 So tell me, when you just waste all your time
 Can you call it a simple life?
 Cause the second shoe can't be ignored
 When it always tends to find the floor
 When it gets too lonely to adore
 Your autonomy is lovingly ignored
 So you stand inside the roar of everything you've ever wanted
 With all your joy departed
 And just a stiff drink to prop your chin up
 Wage war on common sense
 To justify rec-league accomplishments
 Your followers may never pay your rent
 I call your bluff and get the voicemail and then
 I watch your knuckles turn white again
 Inside the box you put yourself in
 When it gets too lonely to adore
 Your autonomy is lovingly ignored
 So you stand inside the roar of everything you've ever wanted
 With all your joy departed
 And just a stiff drink to prop that chin up
 You can't give a shit but you can talk it
 You can't draw a line but you can walk it
 How do you kiss the rings of urban kings
 And still not see that it's just dishonest by design
 You can't see the lines with all the good vibes
 Sleep 'til noon and refuse to redefine a waste of time
 After all the years spent trying to hear you out
 I still think I'll end up with my foot inside my mouth
