Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Woke up to a busted sky Same ceiling Different crack Someone gets a winning smile I get panic Peeling paint Tired eyes in bathroom glass Ask "Who signed me up for this?" Some kids get a soft parade I got thrown in the abyss [Pre-Chorus] Is there a wheel that spins my name? Some crooked book that writes my fate? If there's a plan It's gone insane I'm just asking [Chorus] Why’s life so evil? Like a lottery of hurt Some hearts made of metal Mine rips open at a word Who picked me for the breaking? Put my joy up on a shelf Why’s life so evil Or is it me Or is it me myself? [Verse 2] Couples laughing in the rain I’m the ghost that walks around them Every song’s a private joke Every joke’s a quiet anthem I keep folding paper dreams Tiny coffins in my drawer Every time I think I’m through Life just loads a little more [Pre-Chorus] Is there a switch that I can flip? Some secret door I never get? If there’s a test I always miss Every question [Chorus] Why’s life so evil? Like a lottery of hurt Some hearts made of metal Mine rips open at a word Who picked me for the breaking? Put my joy up on a shelf Why’s life so evil Or is it me Or is it me myself? [Bridge] Hey If you’re out there Feeling wrecked (hey!) Screaming quiet in your chest We didn’t choose this crooked deck But we can slam it We can yell Pile our curses in a choir (whoa) Light that anger like a flare If life’s a rigged and loaded dice We’ll still throw it in the air [Chorus] Why’s life so evil? Like a lottery of hurt Some hearts made of metal Mine rips open at a word We’re the ones they keep on breaking But we’re singing anyway If life’s so evil Hear us howl Hear us howl today

rock, Raw alt-rock / punk energy, male vocals. Dry, gritty guitars in tight power-chord riffs; bass pushed forward, drums punchy with crashing cymbals on the hook. Verses stay tense and palm-muted, pre-chorus climbs with octave leads; chorus explodes wide with doubled vocals and shout-along gang answers. Brief feedback swell into a shouted bridge, then a final, half-time chorus that feels massive and cathartic., alternative rock, punk
