WHEN I’M HERE I WANT TO BE THERE,
WHEN I’M THERE I WANT TO BE ANYWHERE ELSE,
WHAT A TRAGEDY, A CATASTROPHE, FEELING ALONE AROUND SO MANY,
BUT DON’T FEEL SORRY FOR ME NOW.
I’VE KICKED CANS THROUGH THE LONELIEST HEARTLANDS,
I NEVER STOPPED TO UNDERSTAND,
IT WAS A MIRAGE, IT WAS CAMOUFLAGED, IT WAS SOMEBODY ELSE’S,
I WAS ONLY GETTING IN THE WAY.
SOMETIMES I CAN’T HELP BUT THINK,
THERES NO PLACE IN THIS WORLD FOR ME,
I AM NEVER WHERE I WANT TO BE,
THERE’S NO PLACE IN THIS WORLD ME.
MY TONGUE TWISTS FOR A SLIVER OF PURPOSE,
LOOKING FOR WORDS THAT DON’T EXIST,
SO I CAN SAY WHAT I NEED TO SAY,
WHEN MY THOUGHTS ARE AT WAR,
WITH THE WAY THEY FELT BEFORE.

The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur

viscerally affected by covid, this album has a less optimistic but more accepting message than the previous. it reaches the heart of my experience (and others'?) in a cathartic and depressing acknowledgement. it's nice to know you feel the same niq

A very unique addition to the PUP discography that brings a multitude of new sounds compared to previous works, not bad by any means, just a little different.
Go see them live, chaotic. Shmoob
