Survivors of the cut
Keep our eyes glued on the sweepstakes
And our feet dug in a rut
Ooh the hassles and tribulations
A comedy of errors
Chalking up the best reactions one by one
Survivors of the cut
Keep our eyes glued on the sweepstakes
And our feet dug in a rut
The impasses and resignations
The same old obligations
Never want the doing
Just the being done
Light refracting through the blinds that never open
Daring me to look outside to see
Some imagined celebration everywhere
It ain't fooling me
It ain't fooling me
I've been up since 3:08
Colliding taunts antagonizing me awake
Polarizing every single fucking breath that I ever take
Filling up a vacancy
Stacking every old deflection on my plate
Compromising like I'm bartering with days
That's one for you and that's one for me
