Everything At Once

Pressure makes diamonds
You'd draw blood for half the price
I grew up on "White Jesus saves"
Work hard and it falls in place, punch that clock 'til you hit the grave

Man, it's bruised knuckles, baby, it's been draining your life
They made out like a bandit, while you're just getting by
I didn't say it'd be easy, well, just give it a try
You gotta lay down sometimes, be patient sometimes

Feel everything at once, yeah, yeah
Feel everything at once, yeah, yeah

Ripping up sunflowers in the garden
Making room for plants that don't need water
Playing god again, why couldn't I save a dear friend
From going out in a hurricane of lightning?

Here it goes again, bruised knuckles, baby, it's been draining your life
They made out like a bandit, while you're just getting by
I didn't say it'd be easy, well, just give it a try
You gotta lay down sometimes, be patient sometimes

Feel everything at once, yeah, yeah
Feel everything at once, yeah, yeah
Feel everything at once, yeah

No matter how much gas you pump out
Can't feed all these machines
You put in, put in, put in, put in
But it never comes back for free

But it's making no sense with karma creeping
Bad things come in threes, and it weighs on me
Like a tragedy, but I know there's something there

Always bruised knuckles, baby, it's been wasting your time
They made out like a bandit, while you're just getting by
I didn't say it'd be easy, well, just give it a try
You gotta lay down sometimes, be patient sometimes

And feel everything at once, yeah
Feel everything at once, yeah
I feel everything at once (lighting up a pipe dream)

Feel everything at once (New year's pixie dust got even)
Feel everything at once (chasing a white lighter fiend)
Feel everything at once (flame-throwing an angel's wings again)
At once, at once (again, again, again, again)
