We were the backbone
The sanity in the wild
The motivated reason, and we kept this alive
The final bloodline
Of what we've become
But now I'm dragging you along, so it won't come undone

I know exactly what the problem is
And it's not that I'm missing out on anything
Offer up a chance at everything
Over anything, and you poison it
So do the time if the price is right
And it's not so hard 'cause the work is light
And convince yourself that you're in the right
Or you're right this time, so you poison it

Complacence justified
'Cause it always gets done
Someone else will bear the burden, you can cut and run
I know you think it's all just fine
All is handled so just fuck the deadline

So go and sleep on it
Face to face, you will admit
I don't give a fuck, let it rot from inside

Can you ever be saved?
Only yourself to blame
Go

I know exactly what the problem is
And it's not that I'm missing out on anything
Offer up a chance at everything
Over anything, and you poison it
So do the time if the price is right
And it's not so hard 'cause the work is light
And convince yourself that you're in the right
Or you're right this time, so you poison it

Lost sight of your dreams
Traded for a life of ease
Carry the weight while you ingratiate
And you leave it by the wayside
Leave it by the wayside
And you leave it by the wayside
