Everybody's trying to analyze and break you
Advertise and make you feel smaller, smaller
Trading all your youth for delusions of an encore
Running 'round the wheel's getting harder, harder
Nobody ever tells you how long it can take
Nobody ever mentions you might not get a break
So if you're wearing thin, careful don't waste your whole life waiting for it to begin
Up before the sunshine, rinse, repeat the pantomime
You grind and find the coal mine gets darker, darker
Making bread to stay fed but your head is merely mislead
But you're only left with crumbs and you're older, older
Nobody ever tells you how long it can take
Nobody ever mentions you might not get a break
So if you're wearing thing, careful don't waste your whole life waiting for it to begin
Find your love and ditch the rest
And who would've guessed life is more than house arrest?
So find your life and ditch the rest
Find your love and ditch the rest
If you're wearing thin, drowning under this mess you're in,
Careful don't waste your whole life waiting for it to begin
