A General Malaise Lyrics by Nora Marks

Opt Out

2021

It's just a general malaise
Something I go through
No need to call attention to passing waves
It's just a general malaise
Everyone gets them
But the shop has to open
Even on these days
Yeah, oh yeah
I know that I've been had
Tried to exorcise my demons
Ended up ripping my pants
Yeah, oh yeah
I know that it seems bad
But the fact of the matter
Is the matter never lasts
It's just a general malaise
Could use a screen break
Got too much information
Running through my brain
It's just a general malaise
Throw a few things out
Time to return to nature
Or ask for a raise
Yeah, oh yeah
I know that I've been had
Tried to exorcise my demons
Ended up ripping my pants
Yeah, oh yeah
I know that it seems bad
But the fact of the matter
Is the matter never lasts
Carry a weight past
Separating plates that
Were one big thing
A long time ago
Hearing the reasons
Everybody's leaving
It was all one big thing
A long time ago
It's just a general malaise
Passed down in my genes
Chemical composition
Tells me to be afraid
It's just a general malaise
Growing up nowhere
They lost some competition
Now they're gone without a trace
Yeah, oh yeah
I know that I've been had
Wanted to feel better
Now I'm hooked on opiates
Yeah, oh yeah
I know that it seems bad
But the fact of the matter
Is the matter never lasts
