Apartment Dream

[Verse 1]
It’s just you and me and my new apartment dream
Screaming, "why don’t we just watch it all from here?"
I got TV and I sold off everything
Do it for, for just another year

[Chorus]
So, goodbye to our holiday plans
We’ll just stay here instead and turn on the lights
Who said that our future is free
To be whatever we please?

[Verse 2]
Why don’t we just stay home tonight?
We can make up stories, candlelight
Watch our aging faces in the mirror
Sleep away our dreams, year after year
Sleep away our dreams, year after year

We live for the money, lie for the greed
And die for the memory
It's you and me and my failed Econ degree
Screaming, "let's move to the desert on a hill!"
'Cause I can see just as clear as I need
To know they’d even sell God for a couple mill

[Chorus]
So, goodbye to our holiday plans
We’ll just stay here instead and turn on the lights
Who said that the future is free
To be whatever we please, 'cause that’s a lie

I picked up some flowers from the store
And they charged me just for keeping the receipt
Who said that the future is free?

[Verse 3]
Why don’t we just stay home tonight?
We can make up stories, candlelight
Watch our aging faces in the mirror
Sleep away our dreams

Why don’t we step out of the light?
Give up trying without a fight
Watch all our money disappear
Sleep away our dreams, year after year
Sleep away our dreams, year after year
Sleep away our dreams, year after year
