Nothing breeds more contempt
for this world than the mem'ries now formed.
Ev'ry moment, a new seed is grown.
To no reason the trouble unfolds
For the trials of today, I'm no jury.
Really don't care how ya feel.
The pleasant notion of miraculous change
drifts into multiple jeers.
Jeers.
Jeers.
You want the good life,
You break your back.
You snap your fingers,
You snap your neck.
Seconds drip through my hands,
washed of moments born.
All the spaces between bleed,
A tribute to a sacrament never exposed.
A message to the forces.
I've no pity, don't know how thankful to feel.
Expectations of my daily bread,
gives me the hunger to steal
You want the good life,
you break your back.
You snap your fingers,
you snap your neck.
You want the good life,
you break your back
You snap your fingers,
You snap your neck. Ah!!
You want the good life,
you break your back.
You snap you fingers,
you snap your neck.
You want the good life,
you break your back.
You snap your fingers,
you snap your neck.
Snap your fingers, snap your neck.
Snap your fingers, snap your neck.
