Sacred Lawns - Keeping Up

All my friends got taken for a ride
So did I
Keep the pace now
Had myself some paper
Then it dried up, and died in the bank while
All of this and more or less could be yours
Open up and take it down
On all fours
Suck it up and live with it
No buyers remorse
Just capital and human nature running its course
All my friends stay up late getting high
So do I
Faceplant, facedown
Now the tile is set
And the driveway's paved
But I'm still tired of keeping up with the Joneses
Now the paint's still wet in our basement cave
Baby, I'm so tired of keeping up with the Joneses
I'd just like a reason to revive
Not get fried on the weekend
Take a breathe and look up to the sky
Then I'd dive in the deep end
But I just walk around taking notes
Homestead envy got a knife to my throat
Might look better with a brighter coat
Now where did the baby put the f'ing remote?
All my life I'm up late getting high
Til I die
Faceplant, facedown.
Now the tile is set
And the driveway's paved
But I'm still tired of keeping up with the Joneses
Now the paint's still wet in our basement cave
Baby, I'm so tired of keeping up with the Joneses
