alright, let's kick off this ode to a wasted life

fucked up so much, forgot what success tasted like

never had a real job, never hit my potential

fuck, not even close, washing dishes and pushing pencils

endlessly, thinking about all the shit i should have done

had grand dreams at 22, now i'm 31

and time has a way of disappearing, confusing never clearing

and you wake up with the same sinking feeling

that's another decade down, what have you learnt?

time waits for no man as he crashes and burns

it's funny, just wanting to be everybody's friend,

it just attracts enemies, no remedy for empathy

no reprieve, no end to the calamity,

so gradually i just slip back to this fuckin fantasy

all my life, i start things and never finish them,

that's why now i'm breaking my back for bare minimum

and there are thousands of others who are just like me

we wake up to this nothingness after fucked up sleep

another hundred clicks of the same shit, we're wasted

stuck in this endless loop until we cut too deep
