The Dream Is Dead
Hard to keep things in perspective
When you need a fix
Cause the comfort is addictive
When you live like this
You can't know the answers
When the game's been rigged, oh
Procrastination is a cancer
Makes you live like this
The dream is dead
More than it's ever been
Put ourselves to bed
To never wake up again
Get up every morning
Feel that something's amiss
Suppress the intuition
Makes you live like this
The dream is dead
More than it's ever been
Put ourselves to bed
To never wake up again
Dry, cracked knuckles
Blunt hair, coarse skin
Butts and broken bottles
Scars outside and in
Everyone's got a story
But we keep it within
And we don't ever worry
Thats what makes us kin
Diamonds in the rough
No tinsel and glitter
How can this be culture
When it tastes so bitter
To stay is to leave your dreams
Among the litter
But we don't ever worry
We don't reconsider
The dream is dead
More than it's ever been
Put ourselves to bed
To never wake up again
The dream is dead
Oh are we so blind to see
That the dream is dead
This goes out to the one percent
When you need a fix
Cause the comfort is addictive
When you live like this
You can't know the answers
When the game's been rigged, oh
Procrastination is a cancer
Makes you live like this
The dream is dead
More than it's ever been
Put ourselves to bed
To never wake up again
Get up every morning
Feel that something's amiss
Suppress the intuition
Makes you live like this
The dream is dead
More than it's ever been
Put ourselves to bed
To never wake up again
Dry, cracked knuckles
Blunt hair, coarse skin
Butts and broken bottles
Scars outside and in
Everyone's got a story
But we keep it within
And we don't ever worry
Thats what makes us kin
Diamonds in the rough
No tinsel and glitter
How can this be culture
When it tastes so bitter
To stay is to leave your dreams
Among the litter
But we don't ever worry
We don't reconsider
The dream is dead
More than it's ever been
Put ourselves to bed
To never wake up again
The dream is dead
Oh are we so blind to see
That the dream is dead
This goes out to the one percent
