Outside in

Racing and ranting and panting about
You seek silver linings but live in a cloud
Climbing and clamoring for new twisted toys
You pray for some silence and make so much noise

There's that refrain again:
'Please don't give up'
No doubt it was written by those at the top


"We empathize with misery" -
Cause we feel great
"We care for the starving masses"
...With a full plate
And, here's some free advice, for you:
Make sure we're paid
Those who win early love to claim
It's never too late


Defending you send in new words for wars
You end up pretending to even the score
As you make your bed... So you've learned to lie
Blood's thicker than water but it flows just like wine

There's that refrain again:
"Please don't give up"
No doubt it was written by those at the top


"We empathize with misery" -
Cause we feel great
"We care for the starving masses"
...With a full plate
And, here's some free advice, for you:
Make sure we're paid
Those who win early love to claim
It's never too late

(Never too late)
(Never too late)
