Working

(album: KABOOM! - 2011)

Hey, lay low, you know
That everybody has to care
You see that we
All feel the same way you do

Lie to me 'cause honestly
I don't believe that you believe
The lies you tried to feed to me
Like keep your head down
Happy isn't free

'Cause all the boys on the morning train can see
And all the girls with the empty eyes agree
All this working, it's not working
They graduated with a big ten college degree
They're frustrated because it's not how they thought it would be
Sleeping, working, it's not working for me

So I stay in my seat
Try to catch eyes with those around me
But they all stare vacantly on forward
So the future I can see

'Cause all the boys on the morning train can see
And all the girls with the empty eyes agree
All this working, it's not working
They graduated with a big ten college degree
They're frustrated because it's not how they thought it would be
Sleeping, working, it's not working for me

How can I let this go
Know only what I need to know
Can I be only what they tell me I should show
Oh no

'Cause all the boys on the morning train can see
And all the girls with the empty eyes agree
All this working, it's not working
They graduated with a big ten college degree
They're frustrated because it's not how they thought it would be
Sleeping, working, it's not working for me
