lyrics

Waves of disappointment
Crash through high plastic walls
Career suicide (x3) is self care

Light the match warm in the glow
Of our parents dying dreams

They had it all (x3) wrong

They had it all (x3) so wrong

Trapped under the weight of blind ambition
Eat yourself alive from the inside

There, there is no pain
No pain as pure

There, there is no pain
No pain as pure

As the one we build

Light the match sear the skin (x2)
Rebirth (x3) is a lie

Trapped under the weight of blind ambition
Eat yourself alive from the inside

We have one (x3) shot
One shot to find some happiness
One shot to keep our heads above the waves
One. Just one.

We spend our lives laboring under the weight
Of a conditioned dream

Drowning (x 2)

To keep our meat alive

Drowning (x 2)

[To keep our meat alive]
