Picking Up The Pieces

Picking up the pieces as we all fall down
Never thought my life would feel so empty after all i've found
These materialistic ways, and the money that I crave
It's all surreal, it's all unreal
It's all just one big fucking scam
But I can't help but buy all my happiness
And the cost of all this shit leaves me so penniless
It's all a trick that they have set
And you sold your life for it
Another dollar that you'll never get back

Take a look at the life you've got
there's no room for empty space
Just stacks and stacks of useless things
Your money cannot sustain
And all this time you find yourself
All broke and out of change
The bills are piling up
And the money is going away
So don't be surprised when all the things that you have claimed
All start to come apart and look so ill and mundane
The unappealing after effects are closing in quick
It's almost as if, the fucking roof is caving in
