Ignore the dead look in my eyes I've been awake for far too long So far work's been my demise I've let the rich world steer me wrong So what is life if we're not happy Stuck living days that shave our soul I said I wanted to be happy That making money's not my goal I've come too far and now I see This artist's life is bittersweet Knowing your options will be key Reveal your heart or get to eat So how's life fun when we're all hungry Stuck chasing dreams that leave us broke I said I wanted to be happy But now it sounds like just a joke
