lyrics

Every second we spend
Something bad happens
Everyone said we should not fixate

Keep working hard
Something good
Is bound to happen
Every second we waste away

You know the price
But is it right?
We’re paying who we’re meant to fight
And all the time they try to spare
Won’t help us get along out there

Did you ever think the debt was paid?
The only way they’ll let you leave is if you die today
You owe them more than you’ll make
And still they’ll find more to take

Raised in a cage
Taught to chase
Money to set ourselves free
The whole worlds a stage
And they use it
To distract you from their greed

The same message over
And over again
These people aren’t your friends
You’ve got to find your own way in

You know the price
Something ain’t right
Worshipping who we’re meant to fight
And all the time they make us spend
Wont stop the world from caving in

Did you ever think the debt was paid?
The only way they’ll let you leave is if you die today
You owe them more than you’ll make
And still they’ll find more to take

The people have changed
The people have changed
The people have changed
The problems the same

Everyone thinks
We can’t handle as much
Yeah people all think
That we just made it up
Start over again
As much as they complain
The people have changed
But the problem’s the same

You know the price
But is it right?

Did you ever think the debt was paid?
The only way they’ll let you leave is if you die today
You owe them more than you’ll make
And still they’ll find more to take
