About Mess

Have you ever had that friend that just won't stop trying to help… Even when you don't want it. They mean well… But sometimes you just wanna navigate your mess on your own. Right now, society is the mess, media is the mess, outside influence is the mess… but when I wake up… I put on no labels. I just want to be left alone and play my role in the sadness.

Like every song on this record, Mess has current, and past meanings so I encourage you to apply it to your personal experience.

I don't usually produce explicit lyrics, but today's mess… This mess begs for it.

Lyrics

When I wake up
 
I put on no labels
 
I don’t wanna be anybody
 
 
 
When I wake up
 
I put on no labels
 
I don’t wanna need anybody
 
 
 
In this mess
 
I just wanna play my
 
Role in the sadness
 
 
 
In this mess
 
In this mess
 
In this mess
 
 
 
So if I swallow my pride
 
And roll in the mud
 
Things will be better than
 
They were
 
All that I’ve built
 
All I’ve become
 
I’m still as damaged as
 
I was
 
Don’t let the climb get the
 
Story twisted
 
Don’t let the climb get the
 
Story twisted
 
 
 
Keep your head down
 
Don’t wear a label
 
You don’t want to feed
 
Anybody
 
Keep your thoughts politically
 
Sterile
 
Don’t want to offend anybody
 
 
 
In my mess
 
I just wanna play my
 
Role in the sadness
 
 
 
In my mess
 
I just wanna play my
 
Role in the sadness
 
 
 
In my mess
 
In my mess
 
In my mess
 
 
 
So if I swallow my pride
 
And roll in the mud
 
Things will be better than
 
They were
 
All that I’ve built
 
All I’ve become
 
I’m still as damaged as
 
I was
 
Don’t let the climb get the
 
Story twisted
 
Don’t let the climb get the
 
Story twisted
 
 
 
Shut the fuck up
 
It’s my mess
 
I just wanna play my
 
Role in the sadness
 
 
 
Shut the fuck up
 
It’s my mess
 
I just wanna play my
 
Role in the sadness
 
 
 
Shut the fuck up
 
It’s my mess
 
I just wanna play my
 
Role in the sadness
 
 
 
Shut the fuck up
 
It’s my mess
 
I just wanna play my
 
Role in the sadness
 
 
 
When I wake up
 
I put on no labels
 
 
 
When I wake up
 
I put on no labels
 
 
 
When I wake up
 
I put on no labels
 
 
 
I don’t want to be anybody
 
 
 
When I wake up
 
I put on no labels
 
 
 
I don’t want to need anybody
 
 
 
Shut the fuck up
 
 
 
Shut the fuck up
 
 
 
Shut the fuck up
