[Verse 1]

Kuala Lumpur, away from the world

Away from the girl, you met on the wall

Of the museum, you swore she knew your deal

Kuala Lumpur, get safe for a spell

There's no one to tell, how you're shrinking and small

And wasting your freedom, examining how you feel

[Chorus 1]

If it's so funny then why don't you laugh

At your "if only"s and "imagine that"s

Invented rivalries, embittered halves

No one's waitin' on you to fix it now

[Verse 2]

Your fantasy spreads, pushpins through a map

Or dropped in an app, you ask "can a curse, have a radius clause

Someplace it just can't reach?"

Kuala Lumpur, or maybe Eugene, or Albuquerque

'cuz here hasn't worked, you're losing and lost

And haunted by your newsfeed:

[Bridge]

Mar-a-Lago and their coffee talk

Chocolate cake and 60 tomahawks

You turned them on so much, you turned it off

No more waitin' on them to fix it now

[Chorus 2]

If it's so funny then why don't you laugh

At your "if only"s and "imagine that"s

Embedded rivalries, cemented castes

Coded Klansmen, crook aristocrats

It spiked the bloodstream once it hit the air

Center-out, holistic, nothing spared

What good's escaping if it's everywhere?

Better figure out how to fix it

Better figure out how to fix it now

[Outro]

Kuala Lumpur, dissolve in the spell, there's nothin' to tell
