Learning New Things About Ourselves - New Song Lyrics
Lyrics To New Song:
(Roman)
So, youâve gone and called someone stupid,
And in response, theyâve damaged your eye.
But there is where the conflict must end,
Lest you both end up blind.
(Logan, spoken)
Another song? Really?
(Roman)
Sometimes the problems at play
Are not all plain to see.
So we lash out at our loved ones,
Disregarding our balm sanctity.
(Patton)
There are several sides to us that may seem abstract at first
Until we discover where everything fits, and
People can be like a half-missing puzzle set;
As we find the pieces,
Things make more and more sense!
(Thomas, spoken)
Nice imagery, but Iâm not sure I follow
(Patton, spoken to patter-song)
Well, Iâll give you an example:
I had this problem where Iâd often hide my less-than-awesome feelings.
So, when I would feel like sobbing, Iâd just smile and crack jokes!
I thought that that was coping, only joking,
Never showing sadness.
Hoping it would go away!
(Logan, spoken)
Did that work?
(Roman, spoken)
Aw, PatâŠ
(Thomas, spoken)
Howâs that?
(Patton)
Everybody gets sad,
Even dads that have people to care for.
And therefore,
You donât have to hide your pain.
Life without rainy days
Is incomplete.
(Patton, spoken)
Or like not even a thing, you know?
Rain goes to plants, plants feed animals,
plant-eating animals feed animal-eating animals,
and humans feed animals corn and inject them
with hormones until they can barely walk anymo-
(Thomas, spoken)
How does all of that relate to rain?
(Patton, spoken)
Oh, right, rainy days, forgot what I was talking about.
Um. Putting it simply, rain is a necessary piece of the
puzzle that isâuhâlife.
(Logan, spoken)
So true.
Are we done singing or is this just one of those musical interludes?
(Virgil, spoken)
On the subject of storm-cloudsâŠ
âCause, you know. You need. Storm-clouds to make. Rain.
Iâm just gonna get into it.
(Virgil, patter-song)
You once knew me as real gloomy,
This weird spooky, broody dude,
'Cause I knew youâd listen to me.
I was too scary to ignore.
I thought that I could take it,
All the hate could just be shaken,
But when you lo-care(!) for someone,
Not much hurts more than their scorn.
I also felt bad.
(Roman, spoken)
Oh, come nowâŠ
(Virgil)
In a different wayâŠ
(Thomas, spoken)
Different how?
(Virgil)
By bad I mean, well, MEAN.
But I did what I thought that I had to,
Which is bad too!
I donât have to act all toughâŠ
(Thomas)
Sometimes love is enoughâŠ
(Patton)
Or what we need!
(Logan, patter-song)
That was a quaint little review
Of things that we already knew.
Now can our discourse resume?
Thereâs pressing matters at hand.
(Thomas, spoken)
Actually, that was for your benefit.
(Logan, spoken)
I donât see how that could be relevant.
(Patton, spoken)
Logan, please.
(Thomas, spoken)
Our goalâs benevolent.
(Logan, spoken)
You know me; I donât care for sentiment.
(Logan, patter-song, in-sync with Thomas BELOW)
This serves as testament
To the factÂ
That to me, youâre negligent,
Which is fine.
It just works to your detriment.
You not letting me finish
Is proving my-!
(Thomas, patter-song, in-sync with Logan ABOVE)
This serves as testament
To the fact
That you have a temperament,
Which is fine.
You just havenât accepted it.
If youâd let them finish,
Theyâd get to the-!
(Logan, spoken)
Iâm right here.
(Logan, spoken)
Youâre acting weirdâŠ
(Virgil)
I was lost once, too,
But thanks to all of you,
Life sucks less, nowâŠ
(Roman, Thomas, Patton)
Weâre your best pals!
(Virgil)
No-one wants to be a jokeâŠ
(Roman, Thomas, Patton)
But a life free of jokes
Is incomplete~!
(Roman, spoken)
Oh my gosh, guys!
If weâre airing out our dirty laundry,
would you mind if I participated?
(Thomas, spoken)
By all means! Sure!
(Roman, spoken)
Iâd also like to contribute to this weird, vent-y song!
(Thomas, spoken)
Please do!
(Roman, patter-song)
Iâve got an issue
That feels new-school;
I donât wanna say
Iâm too cool,
But Iâm just too fab
For you fools,
And I feel like you donât get me!
(Thomas, spoken)
You insulted us while venting?
(Thomas, spoken)
Itâs alright, Princey,
honestly, it didnât hurt me,
itâs clear youâre the one
thatâs hurting.
(Roman, spoken)
Thatâs not true!
(Roman, spoken)
Donât assume!
(Thomas)
You donât need to save face.
(Virgil)
In ALMOST any case,
(Virgil, in-sync with Patton BELOW)
We embrace you.
(Patton, in-sync with Virgil ABOVE)
We embrace you!
(Roman, spoken)
Thatâs rich!
(Virgil)
No-one hates you.
(Virgil, Thomas, Patton)
Everybodyâs got flaws,
(Thomas)
But with no you at all,
Iâm incomplete!
(Roman, Virgil, Thomas, Patton)
There!
Now you see!
Everybody goes wrong,
And we put it in song,
So itâs easier
To hear it!
(Patton)
This puzzleâs tough,
Iâll admit,
But in time,
Weâll find where everything fitsâŠ
