Lyrics:

Not alright, nothing’s rad, it’s all bad, feel so sad, harsh react

We’re all stressed, we can’t rest, no one blessed, feelings pressed, so depressed 

Help me out, freeze this doubt, end this drought, make me shout, make me shout 

So tell me, how to stay sane in the apocalypse 

Doomsday serenity, joy in the reckoning 

Meditate it away, dance to feel great, 

Maintain a brain in the apocalypse
