Lyric

When will I have time to mourn what I've become

A new corporate shellac with a stapler gun

And I'll write out my letters at demigod speed

And I'll worship upon my own altar of greed

'Til all families break up and all buildings come down

And all letters I write come back address unfound

And the Earth's smile will open 'neath my office chair

Find myself swallowed, Jonah and the whale

And I was born a man, so that's who I became

Trading death for money, fearing only change

Altruistic visions behind a concrete wall

Borders in my body as I wait for them to fall

The tragedy of the dreamer ten times scorned

For their name was drawn out to be young warrior

And so love became casual, tears became dry

As they took up their birthright and saw their dreams die

And you must understand that my life, it is cursed

I have lived all my dreams, I grew gold from the dirt

And yet still there's an emptiness inside my chest

So why not just give in, let the fat whale digest

And I was born a man, so that's who I became

Trading death for money, fearing only change

Altruistic visions behind a concrete wall

Borders in my body as I wait for them to fall

Oh, to fall, to fall, to fall

Fall, fall, fall

- It's already the end -
