Lyrics

False pretense The suspense Of wondering why The world turns While some live And others are resigned to die And that's just life It's always been and it will always be A game of chances and circumstances Quite simply Beyond our control So make of them what you will If nothing matters That just means That there is time to kill Waiting rooms, dead end tunes, playing on repeat In your head And same goes Out there on the streets When everyone you meet Says its no life You climb the hill until you reach the top Once you're there You look around And wish that you had stopped To smell the roses that bloomed along the way They've all wilted Their beauty spoiled You had bills to pay It's the same old story once again There's no use trying to pretend There's no prize behind the door Why bother knocking anymore? Why bother knocking anymore? Push your card, Punch the clock And count your hours down All dressed up With nowhere to go you're stuck here in this town Take a look around (Don't it bring you down?) What will you gain by standing tall? What's the use when you may fall? Why should you run when you can walk? And why walk when you can crawl? When everyday you wake to find your back against the wall Why bother doing anything at all?
