Failure to me is 40 hours a week
Supporting the people I won’t get to see
Escaping through movies and books
Without a thought to notice why
The things that entice us are always bigger than our lives
This makes us happy
So why do we stay a slave to common grind?
We clearly create peace
But only let it exist in our minds
It’s faithless, ill, and contagious
The monster clawing at the thread
The cards stacked, enough said
I’ll have to make you trust me
But I’m stuck
I’m upset anyway and out of luck
Just can’t adjust, even if my way is a swift disaster
You worked so hard for the weekend
The lost sleep turns into thinking
This can only be temporary
All the weight’s too much to carry
I’m an untamed animal and I’m lawless
Your social pyramid is not my compass
It’s faithless, ill, and contagious
The monster clawing at the thread
The cards stacked, enough said
I’ll have to make you trust me
But I’m stuck
I’m upset anyway and out of luck
Just can’t adjust, even if my way is a swift disaster
Through your eyes, somewhere I never could see
In your mind, a place I never could be
Through your eyes, somewhere I never could see
In your mind, a place I never could be
It’s faithless, ill, and contagious
The monster clawing at the thread
The cards stacked, enough said
I’ll have to make you trust me
But I’m stuck
I’m upset anyway and out of luck
Just can’t adjust, even if my way is a swift disaster
