The Short Straw

[Verse 1]
People say "the best is coming, only time will tell"
But as of now the promises are all they ever sell
There is no two ways about it; you picked the wrong one
And now I've got to face the consequences of what you've done

[Chorus]
Doesn't matter what I draw
It'll be the short straw
I see no reason to keep playing the game if I always end up losing
The choice you made is wrong
It was your fault all along
I see no reason to keep playing the game if I always end up losing

[Verse 2]
The modern way we see each other; across the stream
It makes you feel like things are almost better than they seem
But when it seems I'm losing focus it all starts to break
I can't decipher the words you say, turns out I'm not awake

[Chorus]
Doesn't matter what I draw
It'll be the short straw
I see no reason to keep playing the game if I always end up losing
The choice you made is wrong
It was your fault all along
I see no reason to keep playing the game if I always end up losing

[Verse 3]
We have become the global punchline, a worldwide joke
We only got their full attention when we began to choke
Every time we make a difference, it all goes down the drain
It's hard to swallow all these pills when you go and change the name

[Chorus]
Doesn't matter what I draw
It'll be the short straw
I see no reason to keep playing the game if I always end up losing
The choice you made was wrong
It was your fault all along
I see no reason to keep playing the game if I always end up losing
Gonna have to withdraw
There's a pain in my jaw
Doesn't matter what I draw
It'll be the short straw
