lyrics
Work/Worth
doors open up, like hungry mouths
the feast gets served, the horde devours
the digits loath, you do a count
of what you deserve
month in month out
like sisyphus on a budget cruise
finding long lost feelings
in the mediterraneans
go vindicate your bitter fate
exuberant and crushed at once
ah
we're not trying to have it
all
just a piece of it, that's
all
blackened fingers, fidget souls
we're just people made of faults
at least so we've been told
go take vacation, from your vocation
could lose some pounds, you're loosing ground
on who you'll be, when you'll be you
lacklustre love, grate till it's true
join the razzmatazz, husky words you cough
mercenaries, hypocrisy
go drink it up your bitter cup
exuberant and crushed at once
ah
we're not trying to have it
all
just a piece of it, that's
all
blackened fingers, fidget souls
we're just people made of faults
at least so we've been told
and i know just what you'll say before you even go and say it
cause the numbers say that
and i know just what you'll say before you even go and say it
that there's two in four that
and i know just what you'll say before you even go and say it
with the chemicals and all that
and i know just what you'll say before you even go and say it
oh won't you go and shut up
ah
we're not trying to have it
all
just a piece of it, that's
all
blackened fingers, fidget souls
we're just people made of faults
at least so we've been told
doors open up, like hungry mouths
the feast gets served, the horde devours
the digits loath, you do a count
of what you deserve
month in month out
like sisyphus on a budget cruise
finding long lost feelings
in the mediterraneans
go vindicate your bitter fate
exuberant and crushed at once
ah
we're not trying to have it
all
just a piece of it, that's
all
blackened fingers, fidget souls
we're just people made of faults
at least so we've been told
