Monotony by Melodie Yvonne
Boredom wraps around me like a noose around my neck
If you could die of boredom it’s the closest I could get
I’ve lost my job and stuck I am up in this horrid mess
And I’m thinkin’ when it’s over’s kinda anybody’s guess
I’m goin’ crazy thinkin’ ‘bout how we’ll all make great pets
For the money that has bought our soul’s accumulated debts
And when it might be over’s kinda anybody’s guess
‘Cause the world has caught on fire and we’re scared of gettin’ wet
Boredom tightens up that noose there’s not much 02 left
My mind just goes in circles and it’s keepin’ me adrift
I scroll and scroll until my eyes are aching in their pits
And I’m thinkin’ when it’s over’s kinda anybody’s guess
This tedium’s a medium for cataclysmic stress
‘Cause boredom don’t travel alone it travels with its friends
Depression, gluttony, and apathy they all descend
And I’m really not quite sure if any of this has an end
Boredom wraps around me like a noose around my neck
If you could die of boredom it’s the closest I could get
I’ve lost my job and stuck I am up in this horrid mess
And I’m thinkin’ when it’s over’s kinda anybody’s guess
I’m goin’ crazy thinkin’ ‘bout how we’ll all make great pets
For the money that has bought our soul’s accumulated debts
And when it might be over’s kinda anybody’s guess
‘Cause the world has caught on fire and we’re scared of gettin’ wet
Boredom tightens up that noose there’s not much 02 left
My mind just goes in circles and it’s keepin’ me adrift
I scroll and scroll until my eyes are aching in their pits
And I’m thinkin’ when it’s over’s kinda anybody’s guess
This tedium’s a medium for cataclysmic stress
‘Cause boredom don’t travel alone it travels with its friends
Depression, gluttony, and apathy they all descend
And I’m really not quite sure if any of this has an end
Boredom wraps around me like a noose around my neck
If you could die of boredom it’s the closest I could get
I’ve lost my job and stuck I am up in this horrid mess
And I’m thinkin’ when it’s over’s kinda anybody’s guess
I’m goin’ crazy thinkin’ ‘bout how we’ll all make great pets
For the money that has bought our soul’s accumulated debts
And when it might be over’s kinda anybody’s guess
‘Cause the world has caught on fire and we’re scared of gettin’ wet
Boredom tightens up that noose there’s not much 02 left
My mind just goes in circles and it’s keepin’ me adrift
I scroll and scroll until my eyes are aching in their pits
And I’m thinkin’ when it’s over’s kinda anybody’s guess
This tedium’s a medium for cataclysmic stress
‘Cause boredom don’t travel alone it travels with its friends
Depression, gluttony, and apathy they all descend
And I’m really not quite sure if any of this has an end
Boredom wraps around me like a noose around my neck
If you could die of boredom it’s the closest I could get
I’ve lost my job and stuck I am up in this horrid mess
And I’m thinkin’ when it’s over’s kinda anybody’s guess…
