the year is 2013, summer has just begun, youre on a roadtrip vibing, the radio is playing all the new songs, the sun is going down and you are starting to slowly fall asleep, everything is fine…
— We all have someone in our lives we don’t like.
We all have people that hurt us or stress us out.
We all have bad days.
We all have tough months or years.
A boss that doesn’t treat us well.
A teacher that doesn’t care.
A friend of family member that’s scoffs and laughs at our dreams.
Some days you wake up and all you want to say is “fuck you”
That day is today!
For everyone out there who needs to scream at the top of their lungs.....this is Antisocialist!

— ANTISOCIALIST // LYRICS
I had a dream once
All by myself with no one else
I thought I’d died and gone to heaven
Then I woke up
And everybody wanted something
Reaching out don’t fucking touch me
So I take pills to induce sleep
But I always wake up
Please stay away from me
You keep on talking with nothing to say
I don’t wanna hear about your life
You make me wanna eat a bullet
It’s on my forehead
Four letters, off
And go forth and spread the word
I don’t wanna know you
Please stay away from me
‘Cause I don’t fucking like you
I had a dream once
I didn’t know it at the time
The world was perfect in that moment
Then I woke up
I was surrounded by these strangers
Standing close and staring in
So I drink liquor to escape it
But I always wake up
Please stay away from me
You keep on talking with nothing to say
I don’t wanna hear about your life
You make me wanna eat a bullet
It’s on my forehead
Four letters, off
And go forth and spread the word
I don’t wanna know you
Please stay away from me
‘Cause I don’t fucking like you
From my heart
I hope you know this song is about you
Please stay away from me
You keep on talking with nothing to say
I don’t wanna hear about your life
You make me wanna eat a bullet
It’s on my forehead
Four letters, off
And go forth and spread the word
I don’t wanna know you
Please stay away from me
‘Cause I don’t fucking like you
