Running Through The Maze

The bell rings out, eyes stay closed The button gifts me another ten It's not enough to save me from the dread longing for each day to end Wishing our lives away The more it changes the more it stays the same The little that we do, never changes the game It barely pays Running through the maze Only one way through Deja vu Desperate for a way to advance Stretch for the next rung overhead Expecting for the sun to be brighter But on the other side the grass is just as dead Reach up and try again The more it changes the more it stays the same The little that we do, never changes the game It barely pays Running through the maze Only one way through Deja vu At home time finally dilates Big screen keeping me transfixed Too busy to change during the day At night too exhausted to exist If only there was time The more it changes the more it stays the same The little that we do, never changes the game It barely pays Running through the maze Only one way through Deja vu "The Dream" is our mountain god Work hard and our souls will be fed And the glorious journey to the summit Is to step on everyone else's head The dream is real The more it changes the more it stays the same The little that we do, never changes the game It barely pays Running through the maze Only one way through Deja vu Keep the dream alive Keep the dream alive Keep the dream alive (The Canadian dream) Keep the dream alive (The British dream) Keep the dream alive (The European dream) Keep the dream alive (The American dream) Only in your sleep
