lyrics

Didn’t know much about the good life
I read about it, saw some pictures
But if I work like a dog 'til the day I drop dead
I might help make somebody richer

The wheel is turnin’ in the rat race
And I can’t even see the finish line
When its all over will I ask myself if I’ve arrived
Or if I wasted my time?

Feels like we made a deal with the devil
So watch your step, this playing fields not level
There's a thumb on the scale and it’s starting to weigh on me

And now we look back on our own lives
And we wonder where it all went
The hours faded into days, days added up to years
Your time was served but was it well spent?

Follow the plan and you’ll be alright
Bought into that lie and the price was pain
How can we keep up with ‘em when they keep gamin’ the system
Over and over and over and over again

The clock is ticking and I’m dying by the minute,
Trapped in a maze, told I’m lucky to be in it
Is there no limit to the weight bearing down on me?

Nothing hurts more than the sad truth
We try and numb it with the smoke and booze
Better than nothing but nothing is getting better
How much more can we take before we’ve nothing left to lose?

So pay the price if you really wanna "make it"
We’re doing you a favor, yeah, it hurts but you can take it
Keep up all the hard work, everything in life will be just fine, in time

So full of shit man, I swear that they can taste it
Sold us on a dream then they mock us when we chase it
One day we’ve gotta face it, but until then it just weighs on me
