Description: A pop-punk song with positive energy. Sometimes I wonder if some of the great rock songwriters we lost due to mental health struggles, were in part negatively impacted by some of their lyrics. I tried to capture this idea of 'you are what you repeat' here.

A pop-punk song with positive energy. Sometimes I wonder if some of the great rock songwriters we lost due to mental health struggles, were in part negatively impacted by some of their lyrics. I tried to capture this idea of 'you are what you repeat' here.

lyrics

I've been in luck for longer than I expected
take is the way, I wanna be rejecting
all things are made up of all the pretty non-things
ecosystems of
Mites and dust and hope and shy molecules

Hey I've got no bones
to pick with you
so I'm giving up the ghost
for, just for you

You say you don't care
you say that its not your problem like
you don't move the air
a stasis ape of no consequences
is that what we teach our kids?
is that what you expect us to live on
regrets of selfishness
well some of us get something more out of this

Hey I've got no bones
to pick with you
so I'm giving up the ghost
for a moment or two

For all I want for all I am
god bless this place, this place I am
I've talked to rock spirits, my brothers,
their voices ring true
you are what you repeat you are what you repeat you are what you repeat

Hey I've got no bones
to pick with you
so I'm giving up the ghost
for a moment or two

Hey I've got no bones
to pick with you
