Testi

I did it all right, did everything they told me
I went to college, got an expensive degree
I got a job and didn't spend frivolously
So what the hell is this shit?
They fed us platitudes of the American dream
Said, "Check your attitudes, 'cause no one gets there for free
You've got it easy, life is hard, so stop complaining
Must be stupid not to have your pennies saved for when it's raining"
But one step forward is a hundred back
When a dozen geezers with their boards of fleecers
All make more in thirty seconds than we'll ever have
We weren't made to be just cogs in a machine
With no rest until we rust or grind ourselves to dust
And now the world is getting warmer
So can we reject the former structure of this slushed-up muddy cage?
I'm getting fed up with this late stage
Another late night, another flash in the pan
They tell us, "Sit tight, these flames don't need to be fanned"
But we've got one life, what if we took it and ran?
Until they couldn't hold us down
A single torch lit in the night might never light up the way
But at a million and their brightness might just rival the day
Even the hardiest balloon could never endlessly inflate
But we can't wait forever weighted down by greed and hate
It's not a lot to want to feel alive
But when you're always jaded, hard to feel elated
For a single fleeting moment, let alone a lifetime
We weren't made to be just cogs in a machine
With no rest until we rust or grind ourselves to dust
And now the world is getting warmer
So can we reject the former structure of this slushed-up muddy cage?
I'm getting fed up with this late stage
I wanna live my life with you
There's more than enough to get us through
Like, what's the point of all we do
If living's meant for just a few?
We weren't made to be just cogs in a machine
With no rest until we rust or grind ourselves to dust
And now the...
We weren't made to be just cogs in a machine
With no rest until we rust or grind ourselves to dust
And now the world is getting warmer
So can we reject the former
Structure of this slushed up muddy cage?
I'm getting fed up with this late stage
I'm getting fed up with this late stage
I'm getting fed up with this late stage
