letra de hunger artist - american ethos

so you want to touch bottom?
you want to kiss the gnashing t–th of death
flood the gates of sodom
and scrub your hands until there is nothing left
so you want to know madness?
and kiss the feet of the malcontent
crawl on your knees like an idiot
and autograph your love into wet cement

yes, everything you’ve ever done will mean nothing
we are all just specs of dirt on the glass
we chase figures of power and money
hoping that something we create will last
but we are all just beggars in training
wanting validation that we nevеr got
but all our efforts are soon wasted
“wе are all in the gutter so why not look at the stars?”

i can’t explain why my life is a mess
in 50 meaningless words or less
i guess i just want to create something
i want to feel loved and i want to feel trusted
but i’m bitter, angry, and maladjusted
at fair-weather friends and pedigree artists
if merit is determined by your relationships
then here’s your song, you f-cks
i hope you hate it
yes, i’m a hunger artist
with loser lady luck
drawing on inspiration
from the fisticuffs and pity f-cks
so cheers to wedding bells
and fresh new baby smells
and all you peter pans
stuck in “forever never” land
oh, we are so f-cking fragile
the way we parade our hearts
shoot the moon, shoot the stars
still vastly miss our marks
there is strength in numbers
but armies fade with time
so gather your wits…
it’s ok to go it alone sometimes
