People Please
Navigating Life's Disguises
Lyrics
Wait I just got the hang of it
Adapting to the situation and getting used to it.
Masking with the best of them
Engaging in social conformity and concealing true emotions.
Smile
Expressing a forced smile.
It's a fucking Wednesday
Highlighting the mundane nature of the day.
All the suits forgot my name
Experiencing a sense of anonymity and neglect from others.
Because I'd rather be outside
Preferring outdoor activities over conforming to societal expectations.
Smoking with the dish guy
Choosing unconventional company over traditional socializing.
Than to slowly die in a space where I
Rejecting a life that suppresses emotions for financial stability.
Put my feelings aside to pay the bills
Acknowledging the sacrifice of personal feelings for financial obligations.
I people please my way to hell
Engaging in people-pleasing behavior, sacrificing authenticity for societal approval.
But I wish all my enemies well
Expressing goodwill towards adversaries despite internal conflicts.
I people please my way to hell
Continuing the pattern of people-pleasing despite personal reservations.
Oh well, well well
Resigned acknowledgment of the situation.
Oh I people please my way to hell
Repetition of the struggle to please others at personal expense.
But I wish all my enemies well
Wishing well for enemies despite inner struggles.
I people please my way to hell
Persisting in the cycle of people-pleasing despite internal conflicts.
No, I'm not gonna drain my well to feed a thirsty man
Refusing self-sacrifice to fulfill the needs of others.
Why waste another second on the minutia of the social climb
Questioning the value of investing time in social climbing and petty details.
Because I'd rather be that guy
Preferring an unconventional lifestyle over societal expectations.
Busking on the side
Choosing an alternative path, possibly artistic or unconventional.
Of the interstate than to slowly die in an office where I
Rejecting a monotonous office life for a more fulfilling alternative.
I people please my way to hell
Continuing the struggle of pleasing others despite personal desires.
But I wish all my enemies well
Wishing goodwill for adversaries despite internal conflicts.
I people please my way to hell
Persisting in people-pleasing despite personal reservations.
Oh well, well well
Resigned acknowledgment of the ongoing struggle.
Oh I people please my way to hell
Repetition of the theme of people-pleasing at personal expense.
But I wish all my enemies well
Wishing well for enemies despite internal struggles.
I people please my way to hell
Continuing the cycle of people-pleasing despite personal conflicts.
