People Like Us

I'm holding on
To nothing at all
You're all checked in
Now it's time for the show
So you pour another glass
And you're ready to go
Don't you hear the crowd
They're calling your name
Who would've thought what filled your life with hope would drown it with shame
Pressure, liars, critics and more
The ones who say they'll lift you up, then drag your name on the floor
Still you hold your head up
Prepare for the worst
Forget the answers, close your eyes, and turn your back on the hearse

It's like I'm lost
And I can't be found
Standing tall
But I'm ten feet underground
Please slow it down

We're living in the type of a world
That'd rather put somebody down
Than let em open up first
The truth we all been looking for is right in front of our eyes
Blink once and you'll miss it for the rest of your life
Out there on the road is a warning sign
Don't let yourself fall worse than you're willing to climb
If I could I'd grab the tape and rewind it back
Before I ever felt the need to put these words in a line
But it's like, damn

It's like I'm lost
And I can't be found
Standing tall
But I'm ten feet underground
Please slow it down

Why can't we slow down
These pills don't drown out
Why can't we slow down
These pills don't drown out the sound

It's like I'm lost
And I can't be found
Standing tall
But I'm ten feet underground
Out there on the road is a warning sign
Don't let yourself fall worse than you're willing to climb
Please slow it down

I'm holding on
To nothing at all
