you’ll be so successful, you’ll be so bright
you’ll make us so proud, you’ll make us alright
you’ll keep you alive (x3)
you’ll keep us alive
every day was education, workers prep, indoctrination, learn a little bit on how to be a better cog
when the market bottomed, what was it worth?
your degree is refuse returned to the earth
what keeps us alive? (x3)
what keeps you alive?
everything that we were promised
our full faith held in the market
men in suits stole our whole future
when do we take it back?
because I’m running on fumes and I’m going nowhere
just earning a living I’m losing my hair
are we in hell?
and they’re gonna tell you “there's not money in the budget”
and they’re gonna tell you "profits aren't too high..."
and they’re gonna tell you “this business is like a family”
and they’re going to get a big fat fucking bonus
Been following Somos for many years, feeling that they had an opus in them...well, here it is. Driving pop-punk sensibilities lend an upbeat tone in contrast to the grim lyrical proceedings, and they absolutely pull it off. Evocative music that's been on repeat for me all month long. RIP, Phil PaintedDogs
I want to cry with this album on a cold night. We’ll talk about how time is moving too quickly and things need to slow down. We share a silent embrace. lemonstemplefanacc
