Transit

Walking down with a weight onto our hearts
At the cadence of the despair
Defeated by the fact
That nothing's fair
We see the lights glittering into our eyes
Captivating all the stares
But we're lifetimes away
So far from there

I know that we've had enough
We're constantly on our knees
Oh boy that we have it rough
We pay the price to be on our way

Small bites from such a colossal apple
To satiate our appetites
Never made a difference
In any lives
Most of us constantly bargain their souls
For a negligible price
Like we're deprived of choice
But that's not right

I know that we've had enough
We're constantly on our knees
Oh boy that we have it rough
We pay the price to be on our way
But 'that's just a transit'
That's what they say

At the end of the day
Life sets us all astray
It grounds us in beliefs
Then sweeps them all
The bold, the stark
The colours from our hearts
And it leaves us in disarray

But I can't let it go
I've got to pave the way
Until my feet fail me
And my black fades to grey

We owe it to ourselves
To try to stay alive
We got to make it through
These 9 to 5s

We had enough, we had enough
We had enough, we had enough
We had enough, we had enough
