Eyes Shut

Life is what we make it, as the saying goes
No time for excuses, just got to take the blows
But lately, what I'm feeling, like my heart's made of stone
Nothing's really hitting, and everyone's exposed

With time so evasive
Reality abrasive
It's a heartbroken nation
And the money down, inflation
The value we're chasing, everybody could be naked
But I wouldn't know 'cause my eyes are closed

Eyes shut, but I'm pressing on
Fell in love and got hurt, no fun
Got the money, then out it pours
There's got to be something more
Eyes shut, but I'm pressing on
I don't know who I'm working for
Got dopamine and can't feel my soul
I just feel like there's something more

Eyes shut, but I'm pressing on
Fell in love and got hurt, no fun
Got the money, then out it pours
There's got to be something more
Eyes shut, but I'm pressing on
I don't know who I'm working for
Got dopamine and can't feel my soul
I just feel like there's something more
There's got to be something more

Cash rules all around me, rich soul ain't for the weak
Time's so temporary, heartbreak, emptier
Only feeling each other through screens, digital lovers and fiends
Tell me you're with me, too, you know what I mean
I'm craving connection for my soul, growing cynical
It's getting kind of old

Eyes shut, but I'm pressing on
Fell in love and got hurt, no fun
Got the money, then out it pours
There's got to be something more
Eyes shut, but I'm pressing on
I don't know who I'm working for
Got dopamine and can't feel my soul
I just feel like there's something more

Eyes shut, but I'm pressing on
Fell in love and got hurt, no fun
Got the money, then out it pours
There's got to be something more
Eyes shut, but I'm pressing on
I don't know who I'm working for
Got dopamine and can't feel my soul

(Life is what we make it)
I just feel like there's something more
I just feel like there's something more
I just feel like there's something more
I just feel like there's something more
