No Back Ups

from Lost Languid Muddle by Ultraklystron

lyrics

v1.
So I don't ride with isekai as I'm not a bitter guy
Just tryin to find a better life honestly without a lie
Other folks hoping for trucks to run up on 'em why
Focus on final fantasies that they can never set aside

Watch as everyone else is moving up and moving past
Even Anno's telling shippers that it's time to touch some grass
A universe and century of time and space, it's such a laugh
That universal centuries still radiate a deadly grasp

Seeing such diversity all thinkin' "no one likes you"
Watch 'em double down on chat pachiko waifus
The ship will never sail, if they never once try dudes
Complaints can't fall on ears, if they can't start a life too

The metaphors spelled out by all their favorite anime
Somehow never motivates to find a pathway out today
Always for tomorrows as tomorrows never can betray
Wallow in the sorrow, never piloting, just candidates

ch.
No Back Ups, No Save States
No Reloads, Carry That Weight

...Mistakes are too easy to make
You gotta understand the game, cause it's ready to break

No Back Ups, No Save States
No Reloads, Carry That Weight

...You are your own worst enemy
And everyone is ready to catch ya out in ya enmity

v2.
Everyone's connected, yet got no one to talk too
Angst is misdirected, can't even chill with otaku
Energy ineffective, too ready to mute and block you
Can't walk or talk it out, but ready to run and pop you

Can't communicate across divides to any other person
And finding new stomping grounds leads to the uncertain
Easy to stay inside, and try to hide behind the curtain
Parasocial turns parasitic and everybody's hurtin

Everybody here's antisocial, but they still acted out
Then failed very publicly where all the dirt's tracked about
No room for any sympathies, everybody casted doubt
Hot takes cooking nuance off, judgement passed on every route

All could've been headed off by hanging out at comic stores
Made friends at conventions, equals who do not adore
Or hate every action that you ever take, no keeping score
Made as many day ones as you could before ya shut that door
