Lyrics:
My life is a bad dream, and then another bad dream,
Pay the lord to polish the chain,
Pay the lord to polish the chain,

My life is a bad dream, and then another bad dream,
Pay the lord to polish the chain,
Pay the lord to polish the chain,

(It’s. Life. For. Us)

I can’t go on like this, wait for an act of God,
All living life behind, a facade, a facade, a facade,

My life doesn’t even start, ripped apart, ripped apart,
By these very streets, years of thought, years of thought,

Nonchalant replicants, these savants, these savants, 
Grease the palms that polish the chain,
Grease the palms that polish the chain,

(Always. Has. Been)

I can’t go on like this, wait for an act of God,
All living life behind, a facade, a facade, a facade,

I can’t go on like this, wait for an act of God,
All living life behind, a facade, a facade, a facade,

From broken homes, this town is made,
Owed a debt, left unpaid,
Left behind to feed on remains, but who is to blame? Who is to blame?
Time will tell, (life behind)
Time will tell, (life behind)
Time will tell, (life behind)
Time will tell,

I can’t go on like this, wait for an act of God,
All living life behind, a facade, a facade, a facade,

My life, my life, my life, 
Oo I’ve surpassed the limits, 
My life, my life, my life,
It feels so unfinished.

Lyrics:
I can’t look past
This life goes fast
Now what’s going on
Is it worth dying on
My troubled past
Will ever last
So what’s going on
Are you holding on

Sold my 
Self out 
A dollar and a dream is all I got now 
Live fast 
Crash out 
I’m a Hollywood reject I got no doubt 
That I can’t do this on my own 
Cause you make the road feel like home 

I feel too much or don’t feel at all
Is the world too big or am I too small
Now I walk into stores I could never afford 
Have you ever felt like you wanted more
I did 
And I do
This life goes fast
I can’t look past 
Is it worth dying for
My present passed 
My judgement lapsed 
So what’s going on

Sold my 
Self out 
A dollar and a dream is all I got now 
Live fast 
Crash out 
I’m a Hollywood reject I got no doubt 
That I can’t do this on my own 
Cause you make the road feel like home

This Party Sucks

Crash Out

Old white men as they play pretend it's pretty comical!
