Shelf Life - eleventyseven

Take back all the heroes

Send us a loser

We all fight the admin

And end up a user

All the people are crying

Send us a savior

The kind you find in

Big metadata

I’m floating like a caught cosmonaut up in my headspace

Trying to make sense of the pattern

Somewhere in the hype yeah we all got

A bad case of the bends just swimming for the top

If the good die numb under spotlights

We’re the useless ones with the shelf life

We can’t hear the lesson

Over the shooter

We can’t see the here and now

Over the future

But we got what we need to

Take on the empire

We load up a shotglass

To put out the hellfire

I feel a little cached out crowned and forgotten

Someone tell me I matter

Somewhere in the hype yeah we all got

A bad case of the bends just swimming for the top

If the good die numb under spotlights

We’re the useless ones with the shelf life

We’re the useless sons on the run from

A bad taste in the wells where we came from

If the good die numb we’re the wrong type

We’re the useless ones with the shelf life

Somewhere in the hype yeah we all got

A bad case of the bends just swimming for the top

If the good die numb under spotlights

We’re the useless ones with the shelf life
