lyrics

I’ve been over-served, I admit it
Couldn’t possibly walk a line
But I am over this standard of livin’
Three different gigs and barely gettin’ by
Who is to blame? Who is forgiven?
Whose leather boot can I lick to a shine?
Call it a slog. Call it a privilege.
Grindin’ daily mornin’ to night
I guess I’ll call it a life

Made to believe I’m sick and selfish
I never did quite fall in line
Been branded sensitive and helpless all my life
I barely function in the madness
They never fix it by design
Planned obsolescence and a pile of debt ‘til ya die
Oh it’s a wonderful life

All these big broad strokes I’ve been brushin’
Painted over the joys of life
My daughters’ laughter, good bread and butter,
To watch you undress, or the Northern Lights
The comeback kids and the championships
A Porsche’s curves, your soft tan lines
Man this life can feel pretty crushin’
I’ll stick around in the meantime
But I better call it a night

Made to believe I’m sick and selfish
I never did quite fall in line
Been branded sensitive and helpless all my life
I barely function in the madness
They never fix it by design
Planned obsolescence and a pile of debt ‘til ya die
Oh it’s a wonderful life

We got the numbers on our enemies
They’re in our crosshair lines
As they exacerbate our suffering
Let’s let the masses hang ‘em high
(repeat)

Made to believe I’m sick and selfish
I never did quite fall in line
Been branded sensitive and helpless all my life
I barely function in the madness
They never fix it by design
Planned obsolescence and a pile of debt ‘til ya die
Oh it’s a wonderful life
