I grow another year older, feel a little bit colder
It gets harder to remember the past
Cause my clocks they are always alarming, my good friend joined the army
At least he has a career that can last
As they’re selling lives to keep up a quota, I might start doing yoga
Maybe jog around the park a couple laps
Or go see a film on the big screen, my friend lets out a big scream
At the quiet part and everyone laughs
Cause in the darkness of the room we don’t exist
As the rich or poor
We’re just another number for the box office reports
As I send a check to stay in my apartment, can’t help but feeling disheartened
All this money could have bought me a house
Or at least a nicer kitchen appliance, maybe a bachelors of science
You know they say that knowledge is wealth
But not when you’re in debt til you’re dying, suddenly the loudest went silent
Burnt out like a star at the end of their career
They had one last chance to land the lead this time, the table read was a blindside
They lost the role despite how hard they tried
Cause in the artificial light they don’t exist anymore
There’s just a longer list of potential candidates for them to pay for
Cause if the marquee’s lit then we’ll show up anyways cause we’re so bored
Eager to escape the lives we live everyday, don’t wanna live them no more
