I Hate It Here

[00:02.70] Quick, quick, tell me something awful

[00:05.62] Like you are a poet trapped inside the body of a finance guy

[00:12.79] Tell me all your secrets, all you'll ever be is

[00:17.31] My eternal consolation prize

[00:21.56] You see, I was a debutante in another life, but

[00:26.34] Now I seem to be scared to go outside

[00:30.59] If comfort is a construct, I don't believe in good luck

[00:35.11] Now that I know what's what

[00:38.83] I hate it here so I will go to secret gardens in my mind

[00:43.36] People need a key to get to, the only one is mine

[00:47.43] I read about it in a book when I was a precocious child

[00:53.02] No mid-sized city hopes and small-town fears

[00:57.00] I'm there most of the year 'cause I hate it here

[01:04.44] I hate it here

[01:15.07] My friends used to play a game where

[01:18.26] We would pick a decade

[01:20.38] We wished we could live in instead of this

[01:24.90] I'd say the 1830s but without all the racists

[01:29.42] And getting married off for the highest bid

[01:34.46] Everyone would look down 'cause it wasn't fun now

[01:38.44] Seems like it was never even fun back then

[01:42.69] Nostalgia is a mind's trick

[01:45.36] If I'd been there, I'd hate it

[01:47.76] It was freezing in the palace

[01:51.21] I hate it here so I will go to lunar valleys in my mind

[01:55.46] When they found a better planet, only the gentle survived

[01:59.98] I dreamed about it in the dark, the night I felt like I might die

[02:05.55] No mid-sized city hopes and small-town fears

[02:09.54] I'm there most of the year 'cause I hate it here

[02:16.99] I hate it here

[02:27.08] I'm lonely, but I'm good

[02:28.94] I'm bitter, but I swear I'm fine

[02:31.60] I'll save all my romanticism for my inner life and I'll get lost on purpose

[02:40.10] This place made me feel worthless

[02:45.41] Lucid dreams like electricity, the current flies through me

[02:49.93] And in my fantasies, I rise above it

[02:54.44] And way up there, I actually love it

[02:58.96] I hate it here so I will go to secret gardens in my mind

[03:03.48] People need a key to get to, the only one is mine

[03:07.72] I read about it in a book when I was a precocious child

[03:13.30] No mid-sized city hopes and small-town fears

[03:17.29] I'm there most of the year 'cause I hate it here

[03:25.52] I hate it here

[03:30.95] Quick, quick, tell me something awful

[03:33.87] Like you are a poet trapped inside the body of a finance guy
