"Doom Tripping" lyrics

"Doom Tripping"

I'm coming off my meds today
And it was only sort of accidental
Big man's got some bills to pay
And my boss don't even cover dental
Stuck in traffic near the stadium
Coked up faux-cowboys screaming in the street
Saying I thought we had this beat
But the world is turning purple and glitching
I'm just doom tripping

Saw him at dinner with your folks
He bought a gun and touched your thigh when you were seventeen
His wife's a mommy influencer now
He's getting rich running crypto schemes
He says it's already been decided for us
So buy your futures on the future collapsing
Begging to help line up the firing squad
'Cause post-apocalyptic doesn't mean we all stop dancing

No, it's no great secret
The days keep slipping
We've taught our mirrors to speak
We're just doom tripping
Yeah, we're just doom tripping

While I'm vibing in hell
Shouting match with a man on white power protein drip
Getting shit from a twenty-something emo band
Toss me the keys to cave my head in
Now I'm feeling nihilistic
Come on, let me shop to fix it
I'm getting off people watching at the end
Am I just killing myself or doom tripping?

It's no great secret
The days keep slipping
We've taught our mirrors to speak
We're just doom tripping
Yeah, we're just doom tripping

Each day it's only death
And ads for pills that I'm already taking
Weight loss shots and self-help tips
Another hero turned a rapist
A shiny, brand-new app
Because I can't afford a therapist
I'm sweating out the poison
In my dreams, I'm laying bricks

It's no great secret
The days keep slipping
We've taught our mirrors to speak
We're just doom tripping

Yeah, we're just doom tripping
Yeah, we're just doom tripping

Each day it's only death
And ads for pills that I'm already taking
Weight loss shots and self-help tips
Another hero turned a rapist
A shiny, brand-new app
Because I can't afford a therapist
I'm sweating out the poison
In my dreams, I'm laying bricks
Doom tripping
