lyrics

How do we do this (not anymore)
now that the cover's blown?
Can we get through this (closing the door)
now that you're on your own?

I know that we're sinking
I saw that you're ghosting
and I know what you're thinking
that you're not posting

Society needs you
and me to make it go
and nobody feeds you
making the money flow

You've got ten seconds to change your mind
or they'll rob you blind
yes they'll rob you blind

You've got ten seconds to walk that back
'cause they're in the black
and you won't get jack

The terrible secret (isn't a secret)
none of this breaks for you (sometimes it breaks for me)
now that you see (holding the key)
I'm spelling it out for you (telling me what to do)

Society sold us
essentially give in
that's what they told us
was making a living

You're taking a beating
I see what you're feeling now
and Nero is tweeting
you're hitting the ceiling now

You've got ten seconds to change your mind
or they'll rob you blind
yes they'll rob you blind

You've got ten seconds to understand
that it's in your hand
that it's in your hand
