Lyrics
Living on borrowed time
Blind to warnings
Fixed on greed
Underhanded dealers sell and buy
As the law stood by too scared to help
Spiraling cycles that can't seem to self-sustain
From get rich to nothing
The dangerous game we play
Freedom bonds have led us to donning the shackles of debt
You must now repay
Put too much stock in what you had today
Your money is no good here
Falling faster than the bodies from the rooftops, disappearing
Panic adding fuel to the fire
We can't stop it
Failing
We have lost all faith in trusts
Our golden age now tarnished
We were so confident, caught in its luster
Darkened
The blackest of Thursdays
Paper shoes and cardboard houses
The norm for Hooverville
Spread thin to cover losses
Lucky just to catch a meal
Depression we pay
Worldwide market now turned on its head
We must now appeal and pray to God there's hope in the New Deal
Your money is no good here
Living on borrowed time
Much too eager to see the signs
Hopeless to stem the tides when you're living on borrowed time
Borrowed time
