lyrics

They told me to give
To give up on life
They said you can be brave
But in this tunnel there's no light
They drained your body dry and ran away with the skin
You've seen it's being sold in bargain bins

I hit a wall hit a wall 'cause they sold it to me
Cradled by the familiar feeling of something empty
I saw the future and I'm sat taking this in
Staring at that spreadsheet patience wearing thin

I played this life 'cause I didn't know what else to do
Spent the day with my brain
It's starting to stew
Thought to hard
I wish I could for anything else

I never learnt to dance
My feet can't keep in time
I've not got the clothes
So I don't exercise
I tried the world but I don't really think it's a fit
Whichever way that it spins
For the biggest profit

I hit a wall hit a wall 'cause they sold it to me
I ran headfirst faster than you'd believe

I just got paid for doing not that much at all
But banging my head
Against the wall
My time could be used way worse than this
For that I'll never forgive
