Nepotism |
| This transience and impermanence |
| With the weight of your god complex in tow |
| Did you get your fill? |
| We didn’t fit the bill? |
| These micro sleeps on midnight roads |
| Split lip, sinking ship on a wire frayed microphone |
| You’ve got 10 kids staring at their phones |
| Disenchanted, sour like the marrow in my bones |
| It’s not what you know it’s who you know |
| Damned if you do and if you don’t |
| (Hey, hey, hey, hey) |
| It’s not what you know it’s who you know |
| (Hey, hey, hey, hey) |
| There’s nothing left, so reap what you sow |
| It’s not what you know but who you know |
| Damned if you do and if you don’t |
| Digging graves, and we’ll keep digging 'til we’re done |
| You built your heart like a house of cards |
| But the world is changing, we’ve come apart |
| So fucking tired, but we’ve been tired from the start |
| Colour me a cynic cause it’s mostly just a gimmick |
| Like the cookie-cutter shit that’s always followed and before |
| This incoherent misery of silver spoon |
| Middle-class white boys glorifying suicide, gagging at the maw |
| Spotlight under a weathered awning |
| Fog-shrouded overnight drive into the morning |
| Another place to puke to the fumes of middle-aged doom |
| Always empty in a crowded room |
| It’s not what you know but who you know |
| Damned if you do and if you don’t |
| Digging graves, and we’ll keep digging 'til we’re done |
| You built your heart like a house of cards |
| But the world is changing, we’ve come apart |
| So fucking tired, but we’ve been tired from the start |
| So fucking tired, but we’ve been tired from the start |
| So the spiral goes |
| Holes in your hull, but the waves still break |
| The waterline and the water weight |
| Your moral compass floods and rusts |
| It turns to dust, no trust, then hate |
| Pyramid scheme, it’s a puppet show |
| Pantomime cycle that never grows |
| All my cancers, they have cancers |
| So the fucking spiral goes |
| It’s not what you know but who you know |
| Damned if you do and if you don’t |
| Digging graves, and we’ll keep digging 'til we’re done |
| You built your heart like a house of cards |
| But the world is changing, we’ve come apart |
| So fucking tired, but we’ve been tired from the start |
| It’s not what you know, it’s who you know |
| (Hey, hey, hey, hey) |
| There’s nothing left now, so reap what you sow |
