Swan Song Lyrics

I can't keep this pace

I can see my face

And those are my dad's eyes

Insincere

So severe

So terrified

I'm holding down backspace

I'll hold it down in case

You learn to read my mind

Don't build me up

Buttercup

Don't prophecise

I'm walking the rat race

I built my own maze

But lost track of the lines

It's hand-to-mouth

We go without

We agonise

We clock in at sunrise

And put on a disguise

Pretend to give a fuck

It's tiresome

To feel this numb

This pacified

My presence

Like seeing moon during day

These words

Will always get in the way

Our deference

Begging for a living wage

Loud dreams

But quiet during the day

They gnash their teeth I fall asleep

Will I still be here tomorrow

Stuck inside an echo chamber

That says no, no, no...

They gnash their teeth I fall asleep

Will you still be here tomorrow

I'll see you on the otherside
