Sit Pretty — текст песни (The Honor System)

Lines and rows, rows and lines
Boundaries you don`t dare go outside
Take your beating with a smile
Everything is now for sale

What`s the price of a stolen life?
What`s the salary to line up like a soldier?
Then march into the sea?

Seen and heard about their new advances
King convenience got a new crown
I`d rather be left behind
Then be a well trained failure

So let`s take a commercial break
Pause this masterpiece
The only words from our sponsors are
“you can`t have anything”

There`s a window I`ve been trying to look out
There`s some scenery I`ve never seen before
But a few say this cannot be allowed
Keep your heads and hands inside
Keep your single file lines
Keep it to yourself

Voices said to me
You don`t need a fucking cubicle to be free
I`ll sit all alone and play guitar for hours
In this crumbling room I call home now
Who`s to say that dreams are not allowed
Can you understand me now?
I`m screaming it loud

I step back and take a look in from the outside
I see neon signs and traffic lights and lost time
