A Day in the Life
Seeing everything in tessellations
The repetitions of this clockwork nation
From the 9 to 5 self-depreciation
To my sleep-deprived hallucinations
Thinking in strings but we don't sew them together
Watching what eat, as if we want to live forever
"Just a few more paychecks and everything will get better"
Too afraid to think too much, blame it on the weather
Maybe if we all came together...
You know the end of this, said so many times before
But we're all so busy playing games, so busy keeping score
Watch the clock and spill your blood, make sure to mop the floor
