lyrics

Old friend, step into my office.
What is it you want?
I’m short on time.
You look bitter and frustrated
tired and beaten down.
Well, here’s some instruction:

Lose your nerve.
Forget the battles you fought before.
They never made much sense
when it came down to paying rent.
And there are perks to being corporate whores:
the shiny toys help you forget your doubts.

After all, I used to see things from your eyes
and questioned sense of worth
through sleepless nights.
Though, soon I was waving the white flag on high
and the feeling of relief trumped the defeat.

(Get out before the music stops.
Drop…it when you’ve had enough.
This dream life can come undone;
can go in a minute.
Get out before the music stops
Act... like nothing’s wrong
and when you’ve had enough, just run.)

And though I’m sleeping now
sometimes my head still fills with prose.
And if you’re seeing me writing it down
then you will know (Once again…)
that though I may have given up, (I might as well…)
I hope that others might not.
I hope that others might not.
So if you’re thinking about

losing nerve,
forgetting battles you fought before
When they just make no sense
and it comes down to paying rent,
Though there are perks to being corporate whores,
you’ll ever forget what you came here for.
You’ll never forget why you’re here.
