about

The first song written for this band. The chiptune started as just a joke idea, but we loved how it sounded, so it stuck.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Some people wish for disaster
To wash the world away
I say they choose their ignorance
To the truth of judgement day

When it all burns down
There's nothing left to say
There's no one right or wrong
At the end of days

Chorus:
Survival isn't victory
Existence isn't proof
Praying for extinction
Is the pride of gated youth
Maybe in tomorrow we will
Find a better way
To put the past behind us
And live in this today

Verse 2:
Why not try a little harder
Why not see the better half
Try not to dwell on your misfortunes
Instead look back on it and laugh

Whatever got you here
Can't have been that bad
You can't say you hate everyone
With all these friends that you've had
