This Is Your Life

Taking every trifle for a crime
Don't notice that you're wasting precious time
Take notes from the underground
Bubbles on the surface where you drowned
Lately you just fall for every ploy
The internet has stopped to kindle joy
Just mapping out your exit plan
All these years of working for the man
All of the strain, all the bother
The world has you by the throat, dear!
You pulled your weight until you couldn't anymore
Until the reaper came and knocked on your front door
All this time of only pulling through
Regretting just the things you didn't do
Arguing which side has won
But to lose together's much more fun
Choose well which of your talents you will maim
It's hopeless but it's not a serious game
Who's working on since the first day
What they want their eulogy to say?
All of that fuss made you miss it:
The world is in love with you, dear
You worked the grind until you couldn't anymore
Until the reaper came and kicked down your front door
