v1. Now Here's a little self-concerned boring story About how I've become 100 percent hikikomori? An unmotivated shut in Scorning everyone who butts in Closing off every line of open discussion
Lost in a manga made psuedo reality Where welcome to the NHK Is my specialty Surfing every image board On the surface of globe Moe girls w/ glasses Looking like they're Lisa Loeb
Strung out on energy drinks Till I can't think/breath stinks Sliding down the slope Like I'm skating down an ice rink Living in isolation Devastation/in a nation Where I oughtta be tryin to make to the most of this great creation
I was born in to hit America Wait does nobody care? If this tale isn't scarin' ya You better beware This tale's not for the weak Cause I redefine freak Atleast in my mind/cause I can't find The strength that I seek
ch. I'm alone (I'm alone) Hikikomori's the lifestyle You thought otaku was bad That stuff is just for a child
I'm alone (I'm alone) Hikikomori's the lifestyle You thought otaku was bad Come live this life for a while
I'm alone (I'm alone) Hikikomori's the lifestyle You thought otaku was bad That stuff is just for a child
I'm alone (I'm alone) Hikikomori's the lifestyle You thought otaku was bad Just waking up is a trial
v2. Soul crushed and impacted in this urban landscape I can't escape/ from the fate I have brought on to my plate I've got no abilities Lost my facilities To find a reason to utilize my known agility
I am the morning DJ on my podcast which had like 2 listeners at the count I made last And My Blog Cleared 2000 Visitors the other day Though I guess the spiders Could stack the counter that way
I've been respected by my peers In nerdcore and drum and bass So when that high school reunion happens I'll like the look on there face When I say I've been featured on Canadian TV Though I'll negect to note my content Was used for free
I'll mention my press status I'll mention my home business I'll build a psuedo-latice But I won't bare false witness I'll simply ignore the facts that are inconvenient to me And Continue down this path Of duplicity
v3. I run my computer all the time 24/7 Just to get all of my torrents dropped and seedin It's only way I can find the fansubs I'm needin I'll kill time by readin doujinshi by bleedman
Cause it's so kawaii It almost makes me cry It's nice to feel emotion Even if it's a lie is there a conspiracy To make us all lonely nerds? My retort to those reports Would be a waste of words
Gainax and Gonzo Diddy and J-LO Drop lines that we toe Till we just don't know The boundaries and the basis And our reason to live This seclusion/these delusions Aren't something that I forgive
It's pointless/But not hopeless Some one think of the kids Don't get sucked in to this world Through deceptions and fibs The glamor and the glory Of these get girl stories Destroy us deep inside Via immoral allegories credits from Opensource Lyricist, released 27 November 2007 Written, performed, recorded, mixed and produced by Karl Olson.
