go to work
then go back home
flip through the hurt
with the scroll of your phone
scary world out there
feel better alone
let the world burn
in our comfort zone

sorry i gotta work that day
and aint got nobody to cover my shift
and who can afford to quit
in this economy
we aint wanna get
to the core or the pit
of the problem’ we
just wanna dance around it
never confronted our past
never had the uncomfortable conversations
not even in front of the glass
we don’t want the confrontation
