[Intro]
Insanity defense, exhibit A
[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
They go well together, like stormy weather, Rubik's cubes, and moonshine
Well, if Jesus walked on water, it must have been in the wintertime
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 besides, it 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
We've all been screwed since the beginning so you can just look the other way
I won't blame you, I'll probably do the same so we might as well do this together
Oh, 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 and 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
So 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
[Outro]
The truth is caving in
Ah, this life is caving in
And our world is caving in
