Life of Prizes
Welcome to the ivory tower
You've worked hard, reap your rewards
The bar is high and the proles will envy
Individual thoughts left at the door
We're ushered in by a parade of fools
Just watch our pride swell
Adorned with laurels high and twice fawned over
We'll feast on failure
This ain't no place for cowards
No not the weak of heart and mind
Leave that shit at the fucking door
This is quality control
Can't you see that we're consummate professionals
Oh be still my beating heart
You're just downright adorable
We can see that you're drowning
Yes we're trained, but we won't be responsible
No we won't
No
We don't know how to swim for ourselves
I guess it's clear that we are not
What you had hoped and prayed we were to be to you
We are not what you had hoped we'd be for you
No
We are nothing like the ones before or after
Let the blood
Let the blood escape my veins
Let the blood
Let the blood escape my veins
Is that enough or do have a choice
In what I'm willing to do here for you
Breaking and failing and hopelessly flailing
In time I will sink to the floor
No one is coming and no one will save you
Everyone's dying or giving up
You've worked hard, reap your rewards
The bar is high and the proles will envy
Individual thoughts left at the door
We're ushered in by a parade of fools
Just watch our pride swell
Adorned with laurels high and twice fawned over
We'll feast on failure
This ain't no place for cowards
No not the weak of heart and mind
Leave that shit at the fucking door
This is quality control
Can't you see that we're consummate professionals
Oh be still my beating heart
You're just downright adorable
We can see that you're drowning
Yes we're trained, but we won't be responsible
No we won't
No
We don't know how to swim for ourselves
I guess it's clear that we are not
What you had hoped and prayed we were to be to you
We are not what you had hoped we'd be for you
No
We are nothing like the ones before or after
Let the blood
Let the blood escape my veins
Let the blood
Let the blood escape my veins
Is that enough or do have a choice
In what I'm willing to do here for you
Breaking and failing and hopelessly flailing
In time I will sink to the floor
No one is coming and no one will save you
Everyone's dying or giving up
