가사
Oh you got everything you need, they said
And you've got a friend in me and if
There is something that you need just don't go anywhere
But oh, we are canaries in the mine
Just sitting wasting, thinking it's alright
Just breathing in, like we've got all the time
Are they taking what you wanted
Is it not like what you thought it'd be
What do you know about the living of American dreams
Fold your paper, pay your bills and get your magazine
They say the devil is living only in the in-between
Like he's not talking on my TV screen
As though his curses are not what he means
It's just today's loud noises coming over you
Drown out the things you'd do
If you didn't have to
And all the things you miss while you are feeling small
A show of looking out
A screen to say it all
Why don't we pull the plug and watch the whole thing move
Like there is something better staring back at you
Moving slower now
I've got a shadow without a doubt
It's just that I can't seem to figure it out
Just what they're talking about
Why some are going without
And I'm just paling around
And then today's loud noises come on over me
drown out the things I see
I don't know how to be
And all the things I miss while I am feeling small
A show of looking out
A screen to say it all
Why don't we pull the plug and watch the whole thing move
Like there is something better staring back at you
But oh, we are canaries in the mine
Just sitting wasting, thinking it's alright
Just breathing in like we've got all the time
