nathan albums - mechanism lyrics

[verse 1]
i miss the smell of my parents’ bas+m+nt
i’m watching cartoons to stay collected
convinced i enjoy pods the more i taste them
i got the job but i’m not competent
i had these bright hopes i’d make a new home
instead they test my testosterone
i’m too prissy for these new conditions
i’m barely meeting the minimum

[verse 2]
“let down your guards and come by it honest”
is what they say will set your spirit free
but in that moment of courageous trust
they relegate you to probation
how much is the nature of the setting?
how much is the precedent i set?
thought i was grown up
haha, you got me
i’m still a bowl+cut boy in grey sweats
[verse 3]
do you identify by that which hurts you
or by that which embarrasses?
i’ve no respect or threat
i’m only petulant
am i a fraud for wanting more friends?

[bridge]
i prayed to become like my mom
well here i am!
an unflinching china doll smile that fears all men
is there no rhyme to reward?
do we enforce chores because we’re bored?
is life just war after war after war after pyrrhic war?

[outro]
i bet i know where
a hug is waiting
my skin crawls thinking
of finger tips
