I don't like the world quite the way that it is
So I keep talkin' about all the things you won't fix
I'm impatient, a rock in the mud
Truth is change isn't change 'til the changin' is done

I don't wanna make you mad
I don't wanna make you mean
I don't wanna pull you down
I don't wanna cause a scene
I just wanna know right now
Is it all a big machine?
Are we in a crowded hell?
Is heaven all a brilliant scheme?

All those questions have answers that no one can find
Always gatekeepin' gospels until the right time
So I sit in your silence, my senses all stoned
Is your truth really truth once the damage is done?

I don't wanna make you mad
I don't wanna make you mean
I don't wanna pull you down
I don't wanna cause a scene
I just wanna know right now
Is it all a big machine?
Are we in a crowded hell?
Is heaven all a brilliant scheme?

It's not the world I thought I knew at 17 or 22
I spilt my beer, I lost my purpose
Cleanin' up was never worth it
Part the seas and call a truce
It's hurtin' me, I'm hurtin' you
Lookin' down, you talk in cursive
You know me, I never learned it

I don't wanna make you mad
I don't wanna make you mean
I don't wanna pull you down
I don't wanna cause a scene
I just wanna know right now
Is it all a big machine?
Are we in a crowded hell?
Is heaven all a brilliant scheme?

I don't wanna make you mad
I don't wanna make you mean
I don't wanna pull you down
I don't wanna cause a scene
I just wanna know right now
Is it all a big machine?
Are we in a crowded hell?
Is heaven all a brilliant scheme?
