5. FOMO
Words and Music By: Jesse Lacharite
Album: You Are The Product
Here alone
Lockdown, isolation
The world spins on
Excluded
You're not "friends" with the right person
Moments captured in time

5. FOMO
Words and Music By: Jesse Lacharite
Album: You Are The Product
Here alone
Lockdown, isolation
The world spins on
Excluded
You're not "friends" with the right person
Moments captured in time
Showing up on your timeline
SOLO
Inside,
Envy on the rise
Why them...
And not me?
Cut out
And thrown on the ground
Where the losers belong
The beautiful people
Getting away with murder
Erased from the picture
Outside looking in...
SOLO
Darkness descends...
Retreat within the self
Covetous impulses
Turn to hate
Emotions like a runaway train
Starting to affect my brain
Societal norms
Give way to inhibition
SOLO
Dreams of the darkest kind
Start to pantomime
Days dripping red
Nights of utter dread
Messianic evolution
Cultural dissolution
Vicarious eyes
Assimilate the information
Inside we die
As try to live the lie
Burning the candle
At both ends
Substance abuse
Is just the beginning
Sleeping pills or razor blades
Nooses or falling
Extinguish the light
Of a life well lived...
