Testo Xvi

Wrestling the days since the staff crept away
Sorta sleeping awake and just waiting
Waiting
I’m just going to wait
‘Til they say it’s okay to ring that bell again

You see, hook line and sinker
I’m in for the ride
Got my eye on the prize and I know if I show that I’m willing
To try to do it their way
I know what you’d say
You’d say I threw the family under the bus
As if I hoped it would crush us like I don’t care
I do care
I swore and I swear, I was thinking of you, always did and I do
I just see things so different
I just had to try
Like the market’s middle child
We’re not winning or losing
It’s such sweet denial
Up to the chin
But if we just buy in
We could thrive in the gutters
And out on the towns and we’re doubling down
‘Cause we’re dying of boredom
There’s nothing to do
See if you hate the man
The man hates you too

Don’t you think I have moments?
Sure, I’d love to take charge
‘Cause we all see the farce
But we don’t mention
Mention the castle of cards

And what’s there to say?
Let them eat cake?
