lyrics

Given a circadian death clock
To waltz away your time to
You spend the whole of your living
Just to buy back your life

Your whole lifetime is spent
In permanent debt
Paying dues that aren’t even your own
Until your body is spent

Given a circadian death clock
To dance away your time to
You spend the whole of your living
Just to buy back your life

Making ends meet
With feet of concrete
Drowning in stress
Until you’re crushed into capital-feed

Low, we’re so very low
All I see is martyred ambition hanging loosely inside its clothes
Low, and our place we should know
Crushed beneath this petty pace until we start turning into bones

Low, but Life wills it so
We go wherever its motions keep on telling us to go
Low, I feel so very low
But I’ve seen lower

Deficit is calling
And it’s eager to collect
A pound of senseless burden for every ounce of youth that you have spent

Loaded down
A prisoner of debt
With a foreclosed future
And no time of your own to spend

Here’s to the Indebted Man
In congenital binds
Hog-tied and tried
Before the New Economy
