lyrics

I heard a rumor that you fell down the stairs again
You're hanging on but you can't seem to grasp a thing
The puzzle is too big and there is no time
And you're buried alive by the things you must do

Yeah I know how it feels to loose time now and then
To feel the wind pushing too hard on your back
And you say that it's nothing
Yeah you say that it's nothing
Nothing worth the time it takes to speak

The common man ain't nothing but a platform
For politicians pushing insurance plans
It could be fed row
It could be wall street
These days always the twain shall meet

And it won't be long before they completely turn on us
With doctored food and poisoned wine
It's gonna cost ten grand just to fix your mouth
All I needed was a shot
14 pills
and a pair of pliers

So tip your glass sip your wine and drink your beer
'Cause it sure as hell feels like the end is near
Tip your glass sip your wine and drink your beer
'Cause it sure as hell feels like the end is near

And you say that it's nothing
Yeah you say that it's nothing
Nothing worth the time it takes to speak
And you say that it's nothing
Yeah you say that it's nothing
Nothing worth the time it takes to speak
