Anhedonia Green Lyrics

I know you're frustrated

I want to say I'm sorry

I didn't mean to destroy

Your opinion of me

You said I'd be Alexander the Great

But then again, it's all Greek to me

So I'm just spending my whole life

Trying to keep rivers from reaching the sea

It seems I've adopted a futile device as my hobby

Last night I had a dream

And I woke up crying

Now I don't feel anything

Don't even feel like dying

Nothing I do adds up to you

I dot my T's and cross my eyes

I had a feeling, maybe God's not willing

As the creek began to rise

As hard as it is to be good, I'm still trying

Somebody told me life is a prison

I'm gonna walk on time served

And relinquish what I want

Just to get what I deserve

A malfunctioning machine, anhedonia green

They say God loves His children, but that's not what I heard

I want to promise you

And say that I'll do better

Give myself instructions

And follow them to the letter

But love is just a four-letter word

I got away with using too many times

And everyone knows which way the wind blows

But sometimes your left's my right

So we go our separate ways to keep it together
