Alienation



Alienation

I woke up from a dream about alienation, which has been the theme of my life this week, so I wrote a song about it. Alienation sucks.

Just a side-note; I've been considering doing a concept album of a strange sort. Y'know how Linkin Park has done albums in a number of different genres? And, like, how the most recent one was pop music? I've been wondering to myself: What would it sound like if Linkin Park did a country album? What would it sound like???????? Listening to this song a few nights ago, I wondered if it sounded like that very idea - the conglomeration of Linkin Park and country music. I mean, yeah, it sounds like that to me, but other people might think I'm deluded. Ha ha ha.

The lyrics are:
It was a shock
My alarm clock

Woke me up from that dream
That had a dumb stupidity theme
Am I crazy for being here
Inside this dumb life that gives tears?

I had dreams that I was a poop-head
I had dreams about being dumb
I had dreams about being stupid
And at work, I was all thumbs

This situation of alienation
Might cause vast migrations from the human nation
Why'd we want to stay if we're weird at all?
We said no way

My dreams told me
That I'm not free

Every situation is running to The Great Migration
Into the blue, I lost my station
Of being human in this nation
I had dreams about being stupid

I had dreams about being dumb
I had dreams that I was a poop-head
And at work, I was all thumbs
So many of us are in lives where we cannot stand it
And I wonder if we have landed on the wrong planet
And fitting in is getting harder every day
It's shitty to be here - can we just go away?

I had dreams about being stupid
I had dreams about being dumb
I had dreams that I was a poop-head
And at work, I was all thumbs

La la la, Meow, meow meow

Will you come with me into my dreams?
And I'll show you what I mean
But we might stuck inside them
That would really suck
