jack barksdale - insanity defense (exhibit a) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
been driving myself crazy
searching for some peace of mind
pointless, useless
a waste of time

i hate this world, it hates me back
i don’t know what i’m gonna do
all these corny phrases and midnight crazes
are splitting me in two

[chorus]
i’m laughing, can’t stop laughing
at this world we’re living in
oh, it’s happening, finally happening
the roof is caving in

[verse 2]
been reading holy books and science books
at the same time

and i bet adam and eve were pretty peeved
when they learned love was a lie
[chorus]
i’m laughing, can’t stop laughing
at this mess we’re living in
oh, it’s happening, finally happening
the roof is caving in

[verse 3]
my records are all scratched
right out of the sleeve
i’m not one to get mad and sad
that doesn’t really matter to me

i didn’t want to listen to them anyway
just put them out on display
yeah, tears and fears and appearances
that’s how i live my days

[chorus]
i’m laughing, can’t stop laughing
at this mess that we’ve found ourselves in
it’s happening, finally happening
the roof is caving in

[verse 4]
to be honest with you, i don’t believe
much of what i’ve had to say

so you can just look the other way
i won’t blame you, i’d probably do the same
so we might as well do this together
some say life is worth the living
and some say

that nothing can be truly worth it or not worth it and that
worth and meaning are inherently arbitrary so you have to make your own meaning
even if you try to, good luck coming up with anything useful

[chorus]
well, i’m laughing, can’t stop laughing
at this mess we’re living in
oh, it’s happening, finally happening
the roof is caving in

and i’m gasping, yes i’m gasping
at our technical advancements
it’s collapsing, it’s collapsing
morality and contentment

so i’m rapping, yes i’m rapping
on the door of false fulfillment
and i’m masking, just keep masking
all my fake intentions

now we’re passing, we are passing
all you peasants, we are soaring
they’re attacking, they’re attacking
with no caution or warning
[chorus]
so i’m laughing, can’t stop laughing
at this would we’re living in
oh, it’s happening, finally happening
the roof is caving in

the truth is caving in
ah, this life is caving in
and our world is caving in
