Life like a city in a painting, it looked better from afar
You used to buzz at every all-night diner like that's all you really were
But every day now you wake up and realize you don't wanna wake up
It's so hard to find a sign when every ad says, "You'll be fine"

Silent explosions in your mind
Come take you down at any time
Just trying to make it
To the end of the world

Stay alive out of spite
Stay alive out of spite

The years turn, never-ending
Your fear of dying in the self-help irony
You said, "I finally learned to love to hate myself
For my chronic empathy, but I'll be fine"

Silent explosions in my mind
Come take me down at any time
Just trying to make it
To the end of the world

Stay alive out of spite
Stay alive out of spite

Some days there's just so much to marvel at
And other days you're at the bottom of a pit
There's really just so much time
To marvel at
We hope our eyes can adjust to it
But we'll be fine

Silent explosions in our minds
Take us down one at a time
We wanna marvel
At the end of the world

Stay alive out of spite
Stay alive out of spite

Stay alive out of spite
Stay alive out of spite
Stay alive out of spite
