We're caving in around a portion of progress We suffer sounds through a hole in the sign Climbing down where the pressures we purchase Can we pretend that it meant anything at all? So we drive We re-align And tell ourselves everything's alright As we keep licking all the spit off our shoes We can change the world around us And put ourselves to sleep But we don't change for nothing anyway Always gotta be the biggest thing Keep chasing the golden ring And we sell ourselves for nothing
It's alive but there's no destination To pray alone before I shudder to sleep It's everything I never turned my back on I never meant to end up this far alone It's arrived We see it's time To be the ones who'll never fall in line Because this was never meant for your kind Pressure lies In your mind And in the end it cuts away our time Too full of self for us to recognize Cross your heart Watch your back Turn your eyes away Where the strains of the past won't betray your ways
