Shep - Brain Dead

Brain dead cause I look at a screen all day
Blue lights beam when I do my job and I still look at screens when I take a break
I should probably take a break
From that
But if I do then I'll get behind
And if I get behind then I'll be so sad
Never make time for the things I want cause I get so blinded by what I hate
Almost like I consider things more important just because they got due dates
I'm stressed out, gotta keep good grades
Even though I probably won't use my degree
Or maybe I will, because the backup plan is hindering what I aspire to be
I feel brain dead
Looking at these things that just don't make sense
I get distracted and I fall backwards, where did I go
Feel lost at sea, can't find a way home
Too bad for me I reckon I'm brain dead, brain dead
My blue light glasses broke
All my advil's gone
It's so tragic, oh well
First world problems, right
I wish I had some hope
It seems like that's a joke
So in my madness I dwell
Sounds like nonsense
I get on my phone and waste 30 minutes
Looking at people that ain't so diminished
Wonder how many of them are actually as happy as they seem
I bet it's a dang low percentage
But I still remain on a mission
Seeking continual entertainment, as if that's the thing that I'm missing
Procrastination, no kidding
This app's invasive, I have to face it
But I can't escape cause I'm that impatient
I know I don't need it but I feel like I do
Killing myself again, it's nothing new
Hard to admit, but it's hard to contend all the things I wish I didn't do
There's things about me that I love, and things that I hate
But I can't pick and choose
I feel brain dead
Looking at these things that just don't make sense
I get distracted and I fall backwards, where did I go
Feel lost at sea, can't find a way home
Too bad for me I reckon I'm brain dead, brain dead
