Fireman

How long and lonely the trip to being a better man Leave behind all you love, all of your friends Trading in your chips for pennies Trading in your demons for lessons Trading up forever man Yea you're trading up forever man When I look behind me I see silhouettes, Ever growing smaller as time takes its best It doesn't mean I hate you Like just means I have to grow I am a fireman And I'm seeking out that glow The only thing keepin' these legs moving is knowing things will turn around again soon Life is hard when you're sloggin' through deja vu after deja vu Waters up to your legs and rising too This isn't hell, this is right here, this is you You build a kingdom of shit and complain about Which way the wind blew Life tears it down and no one cries with you Life tears it down Life tears it down and no one cries with you Life tears it down Sit alone thinking no one's there Ignoring talking from outside the door Never opened, never touched Never wondered very much about How I became the man I am Always blaming others, my teachers, my parents Never realizing I was coding myself from day one I'm a computer in a world of flesh I'm a computer doing its fucking best It doesn't mean I hate you I just means I have to grow I am a fireman Seeking out that glow
