Why do you think it’s been so long?
Why should we wake
When no one owns what it takes
To keep us alive?
To get us by?
How do you ask for just one more?
You shut your eyes when you walked in the door
We were never the hierarchy
Not what you expected
Because of that nonsense that filled your heads
Your morning was never new
Were we ever worth it to you?
Were we evеr worth it to you?
Have you ever triеd to hang your hat
When the work wasn’t done?
It’s always a half #ss attempt
When you know you’re meant for more
So maybe now, before you come say hi
You might think to yourself
“They worked so hard.”
“They’ve come so far.”
They kept us alive
They got us by
They pushed us past
Where we thought we could ever be
I don’t know about you, but I’m tired of nostalgia
Pigeon holing was never what we wanted to do
If this is news to you, maybe the walls that surround you
Are closer than you think
I refuse to believe that what we do means nothing
That we did before is how we get to do this today
I hope this has been worth it
If you were listening before…
You wouldn’t drink when the water was there
Now your arms are dried to the bone
And there’s absolutely no trace of your jaw
When the blackout of instinct hits
We will all be reduced to nothing
Were we ever worth it to you?
So no, I will not repeat this
I will no longer put this thought on pause
You don’t deserve this at all
You did not deserve this at all
You don’t deserve this at all
