Epitaph Lyrics

Can't we all just agree
That nothing in this life is easy
Instead of running around
Sticking words in other people's open mouths.
It's all that we have
A final declaration of worth on our epitaph.
And motivation be damned
Our lives are only castles in the sand.

Oh, we all know how it goes.
You try to fit into a mold
And hope that nobody will notice your nose the longer that it grows
And now you're cutting down that stump despite your face.
This life is just a race
But it's a victory that we will never taste.
It's really such a waste
You've only got a little time on the clock to get away.

Over and over again
We're running in a circle in a race that we can't win.
How can we make the cycle end
And find ourselves asleep again

Hey
It's only for the best
(For the best)
You wear a weight around your neck in this contest to win best dressed
It's all that you can stand to bear
But stay right there
It all will turn out fine
The voices in your mind will make everything feel alright
Just open your eyes
Open your eyes

Over and over again
We're running in a circle in a race that we can't win
How can we make the cycle end
And find ourselves asleep again

So figure out what you're gonna do
So you know today
So figure out what you're gonna do

Over and over again
We're running in a circle in a race that we can't win
How can we make the cycle end
And find ourselves asleep again
