Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It was a minimum wage for a day
And it felt great to be above myself
And just a little less afraid
And then I parked my ass in a van
Where I sat and I thought about death and shit
And then it all got sick
[Verse 2]
We all got sick
And then we left our kin
Heads set on obstinate
To make it all make sense
[Verse 3]
Sat alone in a nest
With our backs to the insects
And saying home was a mess
But we loved it in excess
Without wheels in the mud
Grind it out till your season comes
When the flies tie into your blood
[Verse 4]
You'll all get sick
And then you'll leave your kin
Heads set on obstinate
To make it all make sense
[Verse 5]
We were strapped to the seats
For a couple of weeks
Took a nosedive on average
Never felt like defeat
We were experts at loss
But it was course for the cause
'Cause for a time, we were matchsticks
For a couple hundred sad kids
[Verse 6]
We're all still sick
Set out to lead our kin
Heads set on obstinate
And now it all makes sense
