Lyrics:

I love material but everything I love so quickly falls apart
Keep it to myself and in my heart
And I'm only as sick as my secrets
So baby tell me what is my weakness?
I called the therapist, she sent me to a circle to sort it out
I've got my foot in my mouth
My medicine stopped working for my sick soul
Under the pressure, I fold

I opened up my heart and found a spiritual void
This is a spiritual world, I'm a material boy
And I opened up my heart and found a spiritual void
This is a spiritual world, I'm a material boy
I'm a material boy

I am Canadian, which is to say I'm still not okay
I wonder what the world would say
And I'm probably sick from my secrets
Politically daft, but we're in deep shit
Can't tell the circle that the red has got me paranoid
Superiority keeps me annoyed
It bears repeating that I'm sick and have to quit
Not a believer, but I'm still afraid of judgement

I opened up my heart and found a spiritual void
This is a spiritual world, I'm a material boy
And I opened up my heart and found a spiritual void
This is a spiritual world, I'm a material boy
I'm a material boy

I filled all my pockets, checked all the boxes
I couldn't escape, still find myself obnoxious
Prideful and godless, selfish and thoughtless
Capital dream for material boy then I went and I lost it
I went and I lost it all

And I opened up my heart and found a spiritual void
This is a spiritual world, I'm a material boy
And I opened up my heart and found a spiritual void
This is a spiritual world, I'm a material boy
I'm a material boy
