Epitaph

Can’t we all just agree

That nothing in this life is easy

Instead of running around

Sticking words in other people’s open mouths

It’s all that we have

A final declaration of worth on our epitaph

And motivation be damned

Our lives are only castles in the sand

Oh, we all know how it goes

You try to fit into a mold

And hope that nobody will notice your nose

The longer that it grows

And now you’re cutting down that stump despite your face

This life is just a race

But it’s a victory that we will never taste

It’s really such a waste

You’ve only got a little time on the clock to get away

Over and over again

We’re running in a circle in a race that we can’t win

How can we make the cycle end

And find ourselves asleep again

Hey It’s only for the best (For the best)

You wear a weight around your neck

In this contest to win best dressed

It’s all that you can stand to bear

But stay right there

It all will turn out fine

The voices in your mind

Will make everything feel alright

Just open your eyes

Open your eyes

Over and over again

We’re running in a circle in a race that we can’t win

How can we make the cycle end

And find ourselves asleep again

So figure out what you’re gonna do

So you know today

So figure out what you’re gonna do

Over and over again

We’re running in a circle in a race that we can’t win

How can we make the cycle end

And find ourselves asleep again (2x)
