None The Wiser

(альбом: Life Will Kill You - 2007)

You want a piece of the cake it's not yours for the taking
You make a hen out of a feather with the proof that you're faking
You play your cards like you're sitting on all of the aces
But you don't even know what a real poker face is

You take what you can get from what's left on the table
You make facts out of fiction based on rumours and fables
You're waiting for a chance to get a share of what they created
You want a foot in the door when history's in the making

You're chasing waterfalls to make your way upstream
You're eating sleeping pills to reach your highest dreams
Your mediocracy takes you to new extremes
You're two times bitter but you're none the wiser

You never participate in the collective agreements
But take credit where you can for other peoples achievements
Then you break down and cry when all your great expectations
Are pulled from under your feet and turn into desperation

You're chasing waterfalls to make your way upstream
You're eating sleeping pills to reach your highest dreams
Your mediocracy takes you to new extremes
You're two times bitter but you're none the wiser

Where can you go
What can you say
Who can you turn to
To get it into your head?
