I've been writing the new alphabet So I won't have to explain what I said or how I mean it I didn't need it And time ticks but I take back what it took Download the movie saves me buying a book that I ain't reading I didn't need it Straw man, grandstand See my reflection, it's an (goddamn) anthem Played as I'm talking to myself Repeats livestream that screens my death and burial Well I've been checking out the internet There hasn't been a single argument yet that I've conceded I didn't need it And time ticks, I put it back on the shelf You hear these lyrics, yeah I make them up myself I didn't need it I didn't need it Want that repeated? No And every time that I walk out of my front door You'll see a feat of architecture, you'll see a force majeure That's what the headlines tell me Well you think they would but the news goes uncompleted The expectations I'd exceeded Still undefeated, I didn't need it It's not my fault
