  • I had a dream once
    All by myself with no one else
    I thought I'd died and gone to heaven
    Then I woke up
    And everybody wanted something
    Reaching out don't fucking touch me
    So I take pills to induce sleep
    But I always wake up

    Please stay away from me
    You keep on talking with nothing to say
    I don't wanna hear about your life
    You make me wanna eat a bullet
    It's on my forehead
    Four letters, off
    And go forth and spread the word
    I don't wanna know you
    Please stay away from me
    'Cause I don't fucking like you

    I had a dream once
    I didn't know it at the time
    The world was perfect in that moment
    Then I woke up
    I was surrounded by these strangers
    Standing close and staring in
    So I drink liquor to escape it
    But I always wake up

    Please stay away from me
    You keep on talking with nothing to say
    I don't wanna hear about your life
    You make me wanna eat a bullet, bullet
    It's on my forehead
    Four letters, off
    And go forth and spread the word
    I don't wanna know you
    Please stay away from me
    'Cause I don't fucking like you

    From my heart
    I hope you know this song is about you
    From my heart
    I hope you know this song is about you
    From my heart
    I hope you know this song is about you

    Please stay away from me
    You keep on talking with nothing to say
    I don't wanna hear about your life
    It's on my forehead
    Four letters, off
    And go forth and spread the word
    I don't wanna know you
    Please stay away from me
    Please stay away from me

  • Anonymous@anon The song is anti capitalist if you actually listen to it. Its saying f--k you to the expectations put on you due to capitalist society, theres nothing in the song that really has anything to do with socialism.
  • Hanzel Und Gretyl Für Immer from Germany@anon no its not. But it's your imagination. Can't the world please just mean less political discourse for everybody? thanks.
  • Janet Williams from AlabamaI absolutely love this song and can feel every bit of it. Asking Alexandria is and always will be one of my favorite bands. I wish I could meet them someday but I know I never will.
  • AnonymousI think it goes a little deeper than that. Antisocialist is someone who disagrees (even hates) Socialists in the political and philosophical sense. (I hope it’s that).
