Wake up to the darkness of another day   you're determined: today you'll get away   but all too soon you find that your day is set   and you haven't figured how to get out yet   all the images are so confusing   the thoughts in your head are so bruising   coffee table world is so alluring   all the lines you drew once are blurring   you once were the rebel - so full of hate   now it seems the suit doesn't fit so great   view yourself a bit uneasily   this wasn't how it was going to be   you know that rationales are far too easy   but you've got to pay the rent and stay warm   ideals battle with reality   you view the world as you know it to be   you built a foundation - but it's hard to stay   truth be told - no one gets away   you say of course things change - well I know things change   but that doesn't make it easier to piss it all away
