lyrics

We are all so anxious
With workloads and debts and deadlines
They call us ‘lazy, entitled generation’
While they pull the ladder up behind

For 6 hours each night I am an animal
Just breathing, sleeping, curled up in my nest
For 18 more I try to tame
These restless thoughts I entertain like uninvited guests

I’ve gotta do some of what pays me
Some of what sustains me
Hold on to what I'm living for
But I’m not my productivity
I think all this work is killing me
And I can’t face it anymore

We are all so anxious
Our lifelines can so quickly disappear
Living in times of plenty but still running on empty
I think I need a sick day, month, year

For 6 hours each night I am an animal
Just breathing, sleeping, curled up in my bed
For 18 more I try to tame
These restless thoughts I entertain like uninvited guests

I gotta do some of what pays me
Some of what sustains me
Hold on to what I'm living for
But I’m not my productivity
I think all this work is killing me
And I can’t face it anymore
