The hardest part of loving Is when the pain subsides And the memories that filled you Evaporate inside Like a slowly pulsing ember A flash of light cast into space And your heart of stuttered beats Awaits another fate All alone with our phones It’s a lonely future Surely it will fade Ain’t no shame in the game To rely on humor Cause everyone is wasted here Your work must be endearing Such a shame that it should be That life is mostly fleeting But has moments you should seize Yes love will turn to vapors Cause change is nature’s joy Who’da thought our home Would be so easy to destroy All alone with our phones It’s a lonely future Surely it will fade Ain’t no shame in the game To rely on humor cause everyone is wasted here

What I Want 03:44
I’ve been praying for me That’s why I get what I want I said, I’ve been praying for me That’s why I get what I want I feel like shakin’ (the earth under my feet) I feel like quakin’ (the drums come from the deep) Is this the feelin’ that I paid for? (Your love don’t come cheap) Givin’ it up (hey!) Givin’ it up (ho!) I got nothing but flowers baby They burst forth and bloom to give praise to the lord We get all that we ask for baby I’ve been praying for me That’s why I get what I want I said you know I’ve been praying for me That’s why I get what I want I’m feeling caged in (shackles on my feet) Feel like I’m fading (but my heart’s still on the beat) But I'm shining all the same lord (this feeling don’t come cheap) Givin’ it up (hey) Givin’ it up (ho) I got nothing but flowers baby They burst forth and bloom to give praise to the lord We get all that we ask for baby I’ve been praying for me That’s why I get what I want I said you know, I’ve been praying for me That’s why I get what I want I’ve been praying for me That’s why I get what I want I said you know I’ve been praying for me That’s why I get what I want I’ve been praying for me That’s why I get what I want I said you know, I’ve been praying for me That’s why I get what I want That’s why I get what I want That’s why I get what I want

HELP 03:25
I met the angel of death At a stop light flashin’ While driving along through the kingdom of ashes I rolled down the window And he asked for a ride Said he’s got a schedule to keep and he’s fallin’ being He wore a backpack and khakis A hoodie and a cap He wore an old pair of converse, not what i’d expect He seemed to be troubled as he sat next to me He rolled down the window and cried… H. E. L. P. Help Can anybody help? Can anybody help? Can anybody H. E. L. P.? Help, can anybody help? Can anybody help? Can anybody H. E. L. P.? Can anybody Help? He showed me places long vacant Though swamp and the fog, Occupied by shadows of forgotten gods Lifted barbed wire parcels, through a quicksand sky Flames gently waved as we passed by He showed me pieces of darkness, Where time has no meaning, Where the stars have gone out and no heart is beating This is sport for the crows, I’m the last one to leave, This job can get lonely baby… H. E. L. P. Help Can anybody help? Can anybody help? Can anybody H. E. L. P.? Help, can anybody help? Can anybody help? Can anybody H. E. L. P.? H. E. L. P. Help Can anybody help? Can anybody help? Can anybody H. E. L. P.? Help, can anybody help? Can anybody help? Can anybody? Help Can anybody help? Can anybody help? Can anybody H. E. L. P.? Help, can anybody help? Can anybody help? Can anybody H. E. L. P.?

about

At its core, "Everyone is Wasted Here" from Painted World tackles loss. It's about the loss of love and the loss of the self as we engage with modern tech. In both cases, both love and the self are expressed as a little fading ember that’s being forgotten. Sometimes you can hold on or reignite. Sometimes you have to let go. Other times it fades without you even knowing, or even caring, but it is a loss nonetheless. I was thinking at the time about how things slip so quickly and suddenly from your present self to your past self.
