Human beings are a waste of breath
And don't think I exclude myself
I'm an asshole just like you
'Cause people are ugly
And people are hateful
Destructive and greedy, we're proud and ungrateful
The world would be so much better off without us

The world would be so much better off without us
And everyone you know will rot away, rot away
Your friends and enemies and all your family
We will all be buried in the ground, in the ground
Let's make the most of it
Cause life's too short to fuck with
And everyone you know will rot away, rot away
Your friends and enemies and all your family
We will all be buried in the ground, in the ground

We have burned their villages and all the people in them died
We adopt their customs and everything they say we steal
All the dreams they had we kill
Everything you say - you stole
Every dream you dream - you bought
We have burned their villages and all the people in them died
We adopt their customs and everything they say we steal
All the dreams they had we kill
Everything you say - you stole
Every dream you dream - you bought
Teach me how to swim
Please, don't let me drown
Teach me how to swim
Please, don't let me drown
And I breathe wind
I've been around the world and back again
I've lost the static
The gray is gone
I have the power of a million exploding suns
And I breathe wind
I've been around the world and back again
I've lost the static
The gray is gone
I have the power of a million exploding suns
That you'd thought would never end
And sing your fears about the future
And a dirge for faded friends
For all the love that you had held to
Why it somehow failed to keep
And sing each minute you've been frightened
Every hour that you've lost sleep
That you'd thought would never end
And sing your fears about the future
And a dirge for faded friends
For all the love that you had held to
Why it somehow failed to keep
And sing each minute you've been frightened
Every hour that you've lost sleep
We hurt ourselves and each other and have trouble fessing up
To the shit that we create
We're running from instead of trying to set the record straight
When will we learn to forgive
And let go of all of our hurt and regrets that make it hard to live
We hurt ourselves and each other and have trouble fessing up
To the shit that we create
We're running from instead of trying to set the record straight
When will we learn to forgive
And let go of all of our hurt and regrets that make it hard to live
The earth will be a better place without you and me
So I climb up on my roof to throw myself from it
Because doom, death, and destruction is all I see
The earth will be a better place without you and me
So I climb up on my roof to throw myself from it
Because doom, death, and destruction is all I see
Everything I wanna say has been said in better ways
When he was 25, Orson Welles made Citizen Kane
I don't make art, all I do is complain, complain, complain

You must be real shitty now
