Popular Monster

[Intro]

Yeah

[Verse 1]

I wake up every morning with my head up in a daze

I'm not sure if I should say this, fuck, I'll say it anyway

Everybody tries to tell me that I'm goin' through a phase

I don't know if it's a phase, I just wanna feel okay, yeah

I battle with depression, but the question still remains

Is this post-traumatic stressin' or am I suppressin' rage?

And my doctor tries to tell me that I'm going through a phase

Yeah, it's not a fuckin' phase, I just wanna feel okay

[Pre-Chorus]

Okay, yeah, I struggle with this bullshit every day

And it's probably 'cause my demons simultaneously rage

It obliterates me, disintegrates me, annihilates me

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm about to break down

I'm searchin' for a way out

I'm a liar, I'm a cheater, I'm a non-believer

I'm a popular, popular monster

I break down

Falling into love now

With falling apart

I'm a popular, popular monster

[Verse 2]

I think I'm going nowhere like a rat trapped in a maze

Every wall that I knock down is just a wall that I'll replace

I'm in a race against myself, I try to keep a steady pace

How the fuck will I escape if I never close my case?

Oh my God, I keep on stressin', every second that I waste

Is another second sooner to a blessing I won't take

But my therapist will tell me that I'm going through a stage

Yeah, it's not a fucking stage, I just wanna feel okay

[Pre-Chorus]

Okay, motherfucker, now you got my attention

I need to change a couple things 'cause somethin' is missing

And what if I were to lie? Tell you everything is fine

Every single fucking day I get closer to the grave

I am terrified, I fell asleep at the wheel again

Crashed my car just to feel again

It obliterates me, disintegrates me, annihilates me

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm about to break down

I'm searchin' for a way out

I'm a liar, I'm a cheater, I'm a non-believer

I'm a popular, popular monster

I break down

Falling into love now

With falling apart

I'm a popular, popular fucking monster, yeah

[Breakdown]

Yeah, here we go again, motherfucker, oh

We're sick and tired of wondering

Praying to a god that you don't believe

You're searching for the truth in the lost and found

So the question I ask is, yeah, where the fuck is your god now?

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm about to break down

I'm searchin' for a way out

I'm a liar, I'm a cheater, I'm a non-believer

I'm a popular, popular monster

I break down

Falling into love now

With falling apart

I'm a popular, popular monster

[Outro]

I'm a liar, I'm a cheater, I'm a non-believer

I'm a popular, popular monster
