  • Lining up all the numbers under the names
    Lining up all the numbers under the names
    Notify the next of kin of the circumstances
    Was it an act of God or an accident?
    Act of God or an accident?
    Or a consequence of a lower profile?
    Salt of the earth underpaid to serve you
    Salt of the earth underpaid to serve and teach your children
    Salt of the earth underpaid to serve and scrub the toilet
    Salt of the earth underpaid to serve and scrub the toilets
    Ruling classes trickle piss from champagne glasses
    That's just how the evening passes
    For a true doomscroller
    And I'm a true doomscroller
    I can't seem to shut it down
    Until the worst is over
    And it's never over

    Arrogance of a coward hostile
    Scum of the earth overpaid to rob you
    Scum of the earth overpaid to rob
    And mock resistance
    Scum of the earth overpaid to rob
    Anonymously from a distance
    Scum of the earth overpaid to rob
    Anonymously ruling classes
    Trickle piss from champagne glasses
    History on repeat relapses
    For a true doomscroller

    Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
    Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
    Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
    Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

    Dog whistle links to a torch song
    Torch song links to a statue burning
    Moon landing links to Q Anon
    Rabbit in a deep hole keep on dancing

    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now

    Lining up all the numbers under the names
    Boy, I'm a true doomscroller
    I'm a true doomscroller
    I can't seem to shut it down
    Until the worst is over
    And it's never over

    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now
    Don't give up yet, don't give up yet
    Don't give up yet, don't give up now

    Take something for the pain
    Not something to conceal it
    More like a magnification mirror full-size
    Inner echo reflecting solace revived

    Whatever you do
    Either way, we're gonna love you
    Never mattered
    Either way, we're gonna love you
    Whatever you do
    Either way, we're gonna love you
    Never mattered
    How many or how much more
    You've been through

    Take this for the heartache
    Not some cure to negate it
    More like a magnification mirror, full-size
    Inner reverberation happens outside
    Whatever you do
    Either way we're gonna love you
    Never mattered

    Either way, we're gonna love you
    Whatever you do
    Either way, we're gonna love you
    Never mattered
    How many or how much more
    You've been through
    Come back to yourself from the battle Writer/s: Emily Haines, James Shaw, Liam O'Neil
