about

The word narcissism means an unhealthy love and obsession for one's self. This song was inspired by so many young people that I've seen these days who try to drown away their hurt and emptiness with drugs and alcohol. They live in a world that tells them to always "look out for Number 1" and, as a result, they go through every day trying to find the answers from within for their internal and external struggles. It's written from the perspective of a struggling youth.

lyrics

{verse1}
What I am what you are
don't you say it to me
I've got feet I've got hands
but I cry when I breathe
Hit the dope that we smoke
It will take it away
all the pain & make believe
I don't want it to stay

{Chorus}
Here we are now
entertain us
I believe that
It's contagious
Not alone in this
awful prison
We need help from
this narcissism

Deadly values
I don't what
what to say and
is my heart shut?
Keep the peace and
we'll buy a prison
should I trust you?
oh narcissism

{verse2}
I've got breathe, you've got life
Let's not waste it away
Emptiness is no bliss
on your way to get high
I was told there's a road
that is very old
But it still brings out life
for all the passengers here
