lyrics

We try to separate
Ourselves from what we’ve made
We live an honest life
We can’t go back in time

We try to justify
Our self-entrapping style
We’re born with boundless minds
We feel the stress

(To my grave)

So lie through your teeth
And lead me direct to my grave
Lie like you mean it

(Where in the world did they get that idea?)
Work ’til you die
(Where in the world did they get that idea?)
Waste your whole life

Translucent lies
Pollute our minds
With ceilings so low
Where’s the reason to fly?

So lie through your teeth
And lead me direct to my grave

(Where in the world did they get that idea?)
Work ’til you die
(Where in the world did they get that idea?)
Waste your whole life
And I know that greed’s insatiable
It drives them every day
But true wealth is unobtainable
If you choose to live this way

I’ll never take this from you
I’ll never choose for life to end
I’ll never take this from you
I’ll never choose for life to end

I’ve seen my life flash through my mind
‘Fore I was 21 years old
I’ve seen it all through my father’s eyes
I caught a glimpse of his lonely world
And I’m not saying that every path is right
But I wish we’d keep each to their own
Religion, finances, decisions, romances
How vapid and hollow
How trite, how mis-sold

But who the hell are we to save them from themselves?

(Where in the world did they get that idea?)
Work ’til you die
(Where in the world did they get that idea?)
Waste your whole life
And I know that greed’s insatiable
It drives them every day
But true wealth is unobtainable
If you choose to live this way
