Youthful Deception: Wasteland's Truth

Lyrics

Got this knock-off divination

Using a cheap form of predicting the future

I put it in my tunes

Incorporating this method into music

I'm on the corner of creation

Being at the edge of creativity

But never follow through

Starting but not completing endeavors

I like walking 'round the college

Enjoying strolling around an educational institution

The gates are painted green

Noticing the institution's visually appealing entrance

They got redwoods in their gardens

Noting the presence of large trees in their gardens

But no sobriety

Lack of sobriety despite the environment

These mosquitoes keep on sewing

Feeling bothered by persistent annoyances

Their bites between my knees

Feeling the discomfort caused by insect bites

But my love is ever-knowing

Despite difficulties, love remains understanding

She spits ice into my seams

Experiencing emotional coldness or rejection

I was talking to the barkeep

Engaging in conversation with a bartender

With her streaks of silver-gray

Noticing the bartender's hair color

And she smiled and called me "Honey"

Receiving friendly address but then being dismissed

And she turned my ass away

Encountering rejection despite a friendly interaction

'Cause I know what I'm seeing

Understanding one's perception of reality

The wasteland is just a pit

Viewing one's life as a desolate place due to personal dishonesty

Of my own deceit

Realizing personal responsibility for the desolation

God I'm too young to feel like this

Feeling emotionally burdened despite youth

There's a beetle on my screen door

Observing a beetle with striking wings

With iridescent wings

Intending to immortalize the beetle in creative work

And I'll write him into my score

Turning mundane experiences into lasting art

So he'll live eternally

Creating permanence from fleeting moments

Summer's looking pretty slack-jawed

Noticing a lackluster aspect of summer

I take him by the roots

Addressing a situation at its root

It's the taming of a stray dog

Attempting to control or manage something wild

And the kindness I mistook

Misinterpreting kindness for something else

'Cause I know what I'm seeing

Reiterating understanding of one's reality

The wasteland is just a pit

Repeating the belief in personal dishonesty leading to desolation

Of my own deceit

Continuing acknowledgment of personal responsibility

God I'm too young to feel like this

Reiterating the emotional weight despite youth

'Cause I know what I'm seeing

Reaffirming the comprehension of one's reality

The wasteland is just a pit

Reiterating life's desolation due to personal dishonesty

Of my own deceit

Reaffirming personal culpability for the desolation

God I'm too young to feel like this

Repeating the burden of emotional weight despite youth

To feel like this

Emphasizing the overwhelming feeling of emotional burden

To feel like this
