Текст песни contempt. - Chonny Jash

Oh, I can't pretend
To hide my deep contempt anymore
Down to my core
The alarms will sound
My heart has broken down
And I know that yours won't last

'Cause at the end of the day
You and I, we're not that different
And though it hurts me to say
In a way, you are quite brilliant
Averting their gaze
With endless smokescreens and haze
Committing to memory the lines of your play
Every day, we lie victim to indifference

A constant barrage
An act, a scare mirage
It's a thin and weak camouflage
What comfort does it bring
Knowing no one's listening
When you act, when you speak, when you sing?

'Cause at the end of the day
You and I, we're not that different
We're both just making our way
Through our long, futile existence
Ignoring the pain
Before accepting our fate
A life's just a memory proceeding a wake
And we both know that we won't leave an imprint

We played our part
We played the whole damn cast
We thought that everyone would applaud us
But once time had passed
Our scripted hearts could barely follow the flowchart
A thin, hollow shell is all that time could afford us

Oh, I can't pretend
That everyone can be my friend anymore
My minds grown coarser
My conscience can only take
So much more of being fake
And I can't ignore this heart ache

'Cause at the end of the day
Everything you say is bullshit
And I've been racking my brain
To decipher what lies through it
We're one and the same
We're both deflecting the blame
We keep up appearences to hide all the pain
But today, I'm the only one left conscious

My mind has wasted away
Trying to keep you at bay
But now the hostility has shown me the way
I can learn from the ones I find obnoxious
