Embracing Realism: 'Wet Blanket' by Eevie Echoes Reveals Life's Imperfections
Lyrics
I'm
I am
Wearing things that don't feel great
I'm wearing things that don't make me feel good
Eating shit to near my fate
I'm enduring unpleasant situations to approach my destiny
Times are changing every day
Changes happen regularly, but they're not happening quickly enough for my liking
But not fast enough for my taste
I feel changes are too slow
Lame ass folks will give me shit
Unimpressive people criticize me
Assholes ruin all of it
Unpleasant individuals ruin everything
Next time I'll just stay in bed
Next time, I might prefer to stay in bed and avoid the situation
Kick-off my worn sneakers
Remove my old sneakers
Every day is another day
Each day presents an opportunity to recognize what's incorrect
To realize its that's wrong
To understand what's wrong with the situation
Call me a pessimist if you must
Refer to me as a pessimist if necessary
Cuz you wouldn't be wrong
Because it wouldn't be incorrect
I'm a wet blanket
I dampen the mood
I know it
I'm aware of it
That's why I wrote this song
That's why I composed this song
Rose-colored glasses
Optimistic viewpoints
I'll smash them on the curb
I'll destroy them by throwing them on the ground
Give me the darkest shades you got
Give me the darkest sunglasses to avoid seeing what's ahead
So I can't see the future
So I can't foresee the future
The more I tend to see
The more I observe
The more I realize the faults
The more I notice imperfections
The cracks in the concrete
Weaknesses in the foundation
I wish they'd gobble me up
I wish they would consume me entirely
Every day is another day to realize all that's wrong
Every day provides an opportunity to understand what's incorrect
Call me a pessimist if you must
Call me a pessimist if needed
Cuz you wouldn't be wrong
Because it wouldn't be incorrect
I'm a wet blanket
I bring down the enthusiasm
I know it
I'm aware of it
That's why I wrote this song
That's why I created this song
You can't fault me for seeing things as they are
I'm not to blame for perceiving reality accurately
You're just mad at me cuz you want to see the stars (Amidst all the light pollution)
You're upset with me because you want to see positive things, despite the negativity around (light pollution metaphor)
Don't shoot the messenger
Don't blame me for delivering bad news
Cuz it's all fucked
Because everything is chaotic
Every day is another day to realize it's all wrong
Each day presents a chance to recognize that everything is incorrect
Call me a pessimist if you must
Label me a pessimist if required
Cuz you wouldn't be wrong
Because it wouldn't be incorrect
I'm a wet blanket
I bring down the mood
I know it
I'm aware of it
That's why I wrote this song
That's why I composed this song
