I Was A Teenage Nihilist

Lyrics written by Neil O'Brien.


Tragedy is bourgeois
Vanity is a game
Integrity is pointless
All these sheeple are the same

Conformity is death
But my uniform is ironic
I'm so detached yes I am so cool
I'm virtually catatonic

I call myself an individual
But I'm easy to stereotype
I read about the Will to Power
But I'm too scared to commit to life

My existence is so tragic
My vanity defines myself
I have no sense of purpose so I let myself drift
I'm the same as everyone else

But I am so pale and interesting
I am so pale and interesting
I am so pale and interesting
I'm a cynic, I'm a poet, I'm full of shite
