Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Kebu and Azalia sitting in a tree
Talking 'bout dreams and what they wanna be
Azalia says she never thought she'd steal souls for a living
And Kebu hasn't come to terms with all of his misgivings
[PreChorus]
While the kids are in a prison yard plugged into a system
Where murder is a way of life and everyone's a victim
They're dreaming of a day when their words don't have to rhyme
And none of them have to think about running out of time
[Chorus]
Better make some noise while you can
Better get your life right with the Man
'Cause your eyes are cold and you're getting old
And they're digging new graves every day
Better find some joy that's for real
Gotta make more lous than you steal
'Cause your eyes are cold and you're getting old
And they're digging new graves every day
[Verse 2]
Graves is in a holding cell that looks just like an office
He'd like to take the day off, but he can't put down the bottle
It's time to go to work, they're sounding the alarm
But it's hard to throw a punch with that needle in your arm
[PreChorus]
He wants to be a better man, but he's plugged into a system
Where suicide is a way of life and everyone's a victim
He'd like to get away, he wants to chance the sound
But he'll probably still be gridlocked when they put him in the ground
[Chorus]
Better make some noise while you can
Better get your life right with the Man
'Cause your eyes are cold and you're getting old
And they're digging new graves every day
Better find some joy that's for real
Gotta make more lous than you steal
'Cause your eyes are cold and you're getting old
And they're digging new graves every day
[Verse 3]
You're attention starved at times, rejected
Thrown around, beaten down, forgotten, neglected
Spoiler alert, I've read the Book of Life
And by the last page, we were all the same and none of us survived
[Chorus]
Better make some noise while you can
Better get your life right with the Man
'Cause your eyes are cold and you're getting old
And they're digging new graves every day
Better find some joy that's for real
Gotta make more lous than you steal
'Cause your eyes are cold and you're getting old
And they're digging new graves every day
[Outro]
So if you're eyes are cold and you care to let go
They're digging new graves every day
