Modern Daze by Antonio Paul Lyrics

Eventually our resentment fills up
Just like a bucket that's placed under a leak
I don't know how long I can stay here
But I know that my patience is wearing thin

Middle class superstar
And a deadbeat running out of luck
Trying to compete with seven billion people
Always looking for shortcuts

Sorry mum, I don't know when I'll be home
But don't worry, If I have to I'll drag my broke ass home

I will lie if I have to, because I've been doing it my whole life
(welcome to modern days)
I'll ease the pain by smoking my dreams away

Eventually our resentment fills up
Just like a bucket that's placed under a leak
I don't know how long I can stay here
But I know that my patience is wearing thin
Survival of the fittest slaving away to buy shit, they tell us that we want
It's a notion we're told our whole lives
And something about it just doesn't sit right
While you fight fire with fire, I'm walking on water
Experiment with pleasure, like Sodom and Gomorrah

I hate the fact that take the bait over and over and over... again
An endless supply of temptations, I guess I better grow a thicker skin

I will lie if I have to, because I've been doing it my whole life
(welcome to modern days)
I'll ease the pain by smoking my dreams away

Eventually our resentment fills up
Just like a bucket that's placed under a leak
I don't know how long I can stay here
But I know that my patience is wearing thin
Survival of the fittest slaving away to buy shit, they tell us that we want
It's a notion we're told our whole lives
And something about it just doesn't sit right
