lyrics

Do you ever feel
Like this life you lead isn't meant for you?
Directionless but purposeful
To break away from servitude
And if this ship be sinkin’
I'm at the helm, all the damp way down
It's all just what you make of it
‘Cause in the end the lights go out

And I don't have the answers
I never claimed to
You gotta live to win
When you're born to lose

Do you ever feel
Like we were built for so much more?
And if you're just a sliver of what you could be
What are you waiting for?

I don't have the answers
I don't pretend to
You gotta live to win
When you're born to lose
You gotta take what you can get
Give nothing back

If you're gonna bring this mother home
You better make it all your own
Now - you better get out of my way
It’s time to die, or step aside, and waste another day

We're built for something more

Follow me into the setting sun
And we'll rest in pieces ‘til the stars come home
Hollow promises and vitriol
Will spill the banks on bloodstained soil

This life's not meant for you
This life's not meant for you
We were built for something more
Something more, something more
Nothing less than something more
We were built for so much more
