Life Savings lyrics - Cursive

Living in a statistic

Sailboats floating on their flow chart

I don't wanna live like this

A day in the sun, swimming with sharks

There's no future, only money, money

No 'me and you', it's only money, money

Money buys a bright future

But we will be forever indentured — money, money

May we never get what we deserve — money, money

Head down, anonymous

The more you comply is the more you subsist

There's no scruples, only money, money

Dollars or rubles, it's all money, money

Money buys you clemency

In a clandestine economy — money, money

Bagged and price tagged, dangling off your feet

Living in a statistic

Sailboats floating on their sales graph

I don't wanna die like this

They wanna make waves, capsize the craft

Underneath the bathroom sink

In a wooden box with a broken lock

You can find my life savings

A high school ring and baseball cards

And when this horror's over

And the greenback's all but trashed

Currency will be our head and hands

So, you don't want to lose your head

You can't afford to lose that

Don't sell yourself to me

You do it for the money

You sell the dream to me

You do it for the money

You're selling us your innocence

Don't sell your faith to me

You do it for the money

You're selling us your ignorance

Your money is counterfeit

Money, money

May we never get what we deserve

Money, money

May we never get what we deserve

Money, money

Money, money
