This track was first written and performed by Karma Affair(Evan Thomas) and is an emotional song about feeling lost and angry in a changing world.
lyrics
I'm feeling pretty inventive tonight
But not creative, to say the least
I wish I had the courage to end this outright
But the beast remains unleashed
I've been transmitting makeshift courage to my mind
All the while staring down myths of grandeur
My reasoning seems all the more intertwined
While I pretend that I am some sort of raconteur
Right about now, my wits are being tested
Im trying to find the rhyme or the reason
My mediocrity is uncontested
And its tough to find a replacement, Midseason
Cruelty never ceases to grind my gears
I'm sick of having to spit shine my way of life
While I'm overly jealous, of the pioneers
My best efforts won't improve the strife
Shine
Please just stay
stay shiny
please just stay
stay shiny
