Friendly Fire
Maximum Fun Bonus Content 2020 Lyrics

I have this thing where I get older, but just never wiser
Despite aging, I have not gained more wisdom.

Midnights become my afternoons
My depression causes me to feel stuck in a state of darkness.

When my depression works the graveyard shift
My depression often affects me more severely at night.

All of the people I've ghosted stand there in the room
My past mistakes and ghosting tendencies continue to haunt and weigh on me.

I should not be left to my own devices
I am aware that I can be self-destructive and need external support to prevent this behavior.

They come with prices and vices
External devices can have negative consequences and temptation.

I end up in crises
My actions often lead me into difficult situations.

Tale as old as time
This story has been told before and is a recurring pattern in my life.

I wake up screaming from dreaming
My subconscious is haunted by past mistakes and regrets.

One day I'll watch as you're leaving
I fear losing loved ones because of my negative behavior and past actions.

'Cause you got tired of my scheming
I recognize that my actions can be manipulative and damaging to others, leading to them leaving me.

It's me Hi! I'm the problem, it's me
I take responsibility for my negative behavior and the consequences it has on my life and relationships.

At teatime Everybody agrees
My negative behavior has been observed and acknowledged by those around me.

I'll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror
I am more willing to confront external challenges than to look within myself and acknowledge my own flaws and mistakes.

It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero
Being constantly at odds with oneself and engaging in negative behavior is a difficult and exhausting way to live.

Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby
I feel out of place and unattractive compared to those around me.

And I'm a monster on the hill
I feel like an outsider and isolated from others because of my past actions.

Too big to hang out Slowly lurching toward your favorite city
I feel like I do not fit in and am moving away from others.

Pierced through the heart but never killed
My past actions have hurt others but not completely destroyed me, leaving me trapped in a state of regret.

Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism?
I recognize that my seemingly selfless actions can actually be narcissistic and manipulative.

Like some kind of congressman
This pattern of manipulation and self-interest is not unique to me and is present in those in positions of power.

I have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money She thinks I left them in the will The family gathers 'round and reads it And then someone screams out 'She's laughing up at us from hell!'
My past actions have left me in a state of fear and mistrust from those around me.

Everybody agrees It's me Hi!
External observers also recognize my negative behavior and the consequences it has on my life and relationships.

Everybody agrees I'll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero
My negative pattern of behavior is visible to others and is a heavy burden for me and those around me to bear.
