Mayday

9 to 5 modern day slavery for us
But my head's so stuck in the clouds
Autopilot engaged
Ailerons are okay
Nevermind my dumb face
Conversation mistake
Mayday, Mayday
It seems the more we give
The more they take away
Mayday, Mayday
I'ma fly away from the planet I'm on
That's dragging me down

Life is what you make of it
Pick yourself up, dust off
And learn to take a hit
Sometimes the snake's
Shoulders' the best to cry on
But don't take too long
You need to move on
Your grass will be green
If you let it grow
When there's nowhere to go
Just trust yourself

Are you living the way you wanted to live
When you were young
Or did you parachute away; abort the mission?
They say the skies the limit
But not for us
It's harder to go with the flow
When you're feeling three times your age
Mercury, or is it Icarus?
In retrospect
Do you think that they regret they can fly?
Crash and burn
Live and learn
The brighter you are
The hotter you'll be
When it's time to burn out

Life is what you make of it
Pick yourself up, dust off
And learn to take a hit
Sometimes the snake's
Shoulders' the best to cry on
But don't take too long
You need to move on
Your grass will be green
If you let it grow
When there's nowhere to go
Just save yourself

Life is what you make of it
Pick yourself up, dust off
And learn to take a hit
