[Chorus]
Would you throw it all away just to live another day?
Would you leave or would you stay when things get difficult?
I pray you find a reason to keep trying
Everybody has to die
I said that s*it a hundred times, because it’s always on my mind
We are blind to the signs
Every time I hear that song my heart breaks open and I cry
Like rain that’s falling from the sky
It feel like the end is nigh
Watch the day turn into night
The sun‘ll come up
[Verse]
Uh, a beautiful symmetry persists
You could raise a hand or a fist if you want
But it’s on top of a wrist either way
Just watch, there will be dark times and brighter days if you wait
The clock look like a plate with a knife and a fork
Or some chopsticks for stuffing your face
I hear it tick
Got me bugging
Blood suckers insist on hurting others for kicks
Their feng shui is a miss
Would round houses make us non violent?
If there ain’t a corner you can hide in, zip lip, stay silent
Try to widen my mind
But what’s the point in trying to if everything I’m fighting for is always dying?
Hope is not provided
Residing in dimension of impermanence
Furnace is burning and consuming, is it purposeless?
Life feel like a circus, I’m a jester
Keep track of your purchases, become an investor
Reward your successors
Honor ancestors
Learn about how you can suffer for a semester
And answer all the questions when they test ya

You are nothing but a complex collection of receptors
Born to work and die
Never tell jokes or smile
Obey the boss, CEO, or professor
Dropped out of school and I threw away the rope
Free expression how I cope
Now I make my own hope

[Chorus]
Would you throw it all away just to live another day?
Would you leave or would you stay when things get difficult?
I pray you find a reason to keep trying
Everybody has to die
I said that s*it a hundred times, because it’s always on my mind
We are blind to the signs
Every time I hear that song my heart breaks open and I cry
Like rain that’s falling from the sky
It feel like the end is nigh
Watch the day turn into night
The sun’ll come up

[Outro]
The sun’ll come up
The sun’ll come up
The sun’ll come up
