lyrics

I’m on the bus there’s a hold-up
As we graduate from the daily grind
Praying for the traffic lights to change
The traffic in my mind
It goes green to red to yellow
And everything between
Yet here I sit in the back seat
And regard the cars as they interweave

They say all things change
I can’t keep with this pace
When did it become a race?

I press my nose to the window
While those around stare at their souls
The glow of the phone is a glimpse to the ego
Scrolling through the infinite roll of screw-ups
Like me and you
Broadcasting our past and present
As if it all were true

Flourishing in a façade of fake skin
Just don’t forget to grin

It’s never enough never enough never enough
It’s never enough never enough

It’s never enough never enough never enough
It’s never enough never enough

People on their way home
Another day over
Vehicles on the road float
Just like the years
That drift and pass by in a blur
But the more we yearn
To reach for handmade heights
They pull us back to the herd
Gotta get a good return
So the wheels turn

It’s never enough never enough never enough
It’s never enough never enough...
