Counterfiction

You walk through life deaf and blind
As everything unfolds around you without reason or rhyme
Because it’s not about why
It’s simply all about time

And no, it’s not about when the fucking stars align
Everything around you is within your control
It’s not decided by the supernatural
It makes me sick that your head is so thick

Open up your eyes
Why don’t you open up your eyes?
You control your own fate
Don’t listen to a word they say

There's no such thing as destiny
And when you wish upon a star
It won’t get you very fucking far
Your view on life is through foolish eyes
Believing all you see when all you see is lies

Hate to break your spirits
I can't help it I'm a realist
I don't rely on fairy tales to justify why I exist
You can try but you'll never convince me
I don't believe in the make believe

Call me egotistical, overanalytical
All I want to do is to explain the inexplicable
It doesn't bother me that we disagree
Your views, your values, they don't mean shit to me

Everything is coincidence
Every situation is created by chance
You control your own fate
Don’t listen to a word they say

There’s no such thing as destiny
And when you wish upon a star
It won’t get you very fucking far
You are no more predetermined than the vermin
The filth that lurks in the sewers and the streets
