Apes of the State - Fun & Games Lyrics

You told me once
That you never say you're sorry
Cause if you never apologize then it means you're never wrong
Well I'll tell you what
I see the flaws in your logic
And you're wrong whether you like to admit it or not
Your biggest flaw
Is believing that you have none
We are only human you are not an exception to the rules
And rules were meant to be broken
But I don't see the benefits in leaving things unspoken
So if I had one thing that I could say to you
It would be that I am sorry
But I can only be myself to a fault
And for that I'm not sorry

My biggest flaw
Is believing that I have too many
It's like the weight of the world is crashing down on top of me
I can't breathe
Barely make it out of bed some days
But saying that out loud
Is the first step towards changing
Everything that I hold true and believe in
Is subject to revision faced with new information
Still I cling
To old habits and self loathing
To numb the pain of knowing I'm the source of all my problems and I

Put things off until it's way too late to fix them
Can't seem to help it procrastinations so addictive

This was all fun and games until I tore down everything
That held me back

To all the kids
Who are beaten down and hopeless
Forced to live in this society that we believe is broken
I hope you know
That you are not alone in this
We've built a scene on tolerance and it's far from perfect
But can we try
To see past all our differences
Even those who we believe are wrong?
To look them in the eyes
And forgive them for their flaws
Cause they are only human after all

And the only thing I don't want you to do
Is ever apologize for being you
Some things you just can't change

And I've seen too many of my friends
Drink or drug themselves to death
To numb the pain of knowing
we got ourselves into this mess
Where in this day and age we still need things like safe spaces
Because people still can't tolerate
people who are different
And the way our system works
Is destroying our planet
And the human race might drive itself extinct before we get it

Cause we
Put things off until it's way too late to fix them
Can't seem to help it procrastinations so addictive

And it's easier said than done
That we'll get it it tomorrow
when tomorrow might never ever come

This is all fun and games until we tear down everything
That keeps us all from loving ourselves

This is all fun and games until we tear down everything
That holds us back
