Şarkı sözleri

Yes, sir
Can you see in your mind's eye
That we are one
We're all the same
And life is just a simple game?
And he missed those days when the kids all played
When a fistful of dirt made him rich all day
Now he sits in a grave and he grips on a fistful of change that he saved
It's a simple game
I thought life was a linear game
With a singular aim, just to get paid, whatever it takes
Slave for a generous wage
And at the end of the day, my little head'll be raised
Hi, my name's withered and greyed
Everythin' I ever made now is frittered away
Every friend I ever had came second in place to the cash
How much cash can I fit in this grave?
I regret viewing life as a contest
It's not just thousand-dollar suits and watches
It's not just, "Man, I gotta do what the boss says"
Obnoxious? (Yeah) But I got the hottest stock tips
Got lost in what's most important for my pockets and other assorted nonsense
My name's forgotten conscience
Life is simple, I developed a complex
Can you see in your mind's eye
That we are one
We're all the same
And life is just a simple game?
And he missed those days when the kids all played
When a fistful of dirt made him rich all day
Now, he sits in a grave and he grips on a fistful of change that he saved
It's a simple game
(All we own) Is worthless when
(Home sweet home's) A furnace and
(Though we know) We can’t keep our purchase
(We know) We’ll see how much ash this urn fits
Yeah, from the poor to dirt rich
We all turn the same direction the Earth twists
I learned this late, but it's nothin' I can't fix
Hold my pride as I traverse this burnt bridge
Fuck spendin' my whole life in a job that I don't like to go buy shit that I don't need
It's so easy to fall into the trap
"I'm better than him, I got more crap" (Look)
Even if you're not sure what you're on this rock for
You're worth more than the money in your sock drawer
That's enough talk, that's the naked truth
My name is you
Can you see in your mind's eye
That we are one
We're all the same
And life is just a simple game?
And he missed those days when the kids all played
When a fist full of dirt made him rich all day
Now, he sits in a grave and he grips on a fistful of change that he saved
It's a simple game
—Eye
That we are one
We're all the same
And life is just a simple game?
And he missed those days when the kids all played
When a fist full of dirt made 'em rich all day
Now, he sits in a grave and he grips on a fistful of change that he saved
This world ain't turnin' on us
This world is turnin' with us
This world ain't turnin' on us
This world is turnin' with us
This world ain't turnin' on us
This world is turnin' with us
This world ain't turnin' on us
This world is turnin' with us
