Lyrics:
Woke up to see another day;
I’d chased the years away.
Suits and ties, step in line,
Just stuck on repeat all the time.
(Time is flying by)
The shadows underneath our beds
turned into debts we couldn’t pay.
(Pay your life no mind)
In a convoluted state,
I start to crush under the weight
Of a universe the size of a marble.
(Pay your live no mind)
I want to seize these fucking days,
but my youth is in decay.
I’ll just dance along the edge of my own grave.
All my convictions were just sediment
in a constant rolling tide.
Like a perfect night of fireworks,
I watch my youth capsize.
Robbed of the summer breeze I used to know,
Feels like I’m standing in six feet of snow.
The smile is all for show.
My world’s not mine anymore;
The realization’s so hard to ignore.
Morals shot, growing up, gotta get ahead;
I’d rather get a lethal injection.
Hours unwind, I’m left behind,
still stuck on repeat all the time.
(Time is flying by)
When machines have no fumes left.
Can you make the engine rev?
Sometimes this life is like a sentence.
An era died and I cannot deny, losing my mind.
Turning to ethanol to shake this.
Tried to get back the good times.
I’ve tried, I’ve tried, I’ve tried.
