Lyrics
Take a Number
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Never even knew
What you meant to convey
You handed us a retrospect
'Til you didn't have a thing to say
No one questions you
Even someone set out to do
Now it's nothing
But dead and gone
Let's go
Better with a lie
Than the world's ever seen
You wanted all the recognition
Until you lost the means
No one talks to you
Even someone set out to do
Take a number, your time has come
Cuz you're another one!
You're another soul to feed
To the man's machine!
My excuses lay me down
My emotions make me drown
My endeavor takes blame
At least I have a name
Cuz you're another one!
You're another soul to feed
To the man's machine!
