The Privileged - System Syn

You live your life like you’re on TV

But no-one really cares about you

You write your own reality

And cross your fingers they won’t doubt you

She said, it doesn’t have to be like this

Yes it does, yes it doesn’t have to be

It doesn’t have to be like this

Yes it does, yes it does, yes it does

When the curtains open

Do you fear they’ll see the truth?

Will the lights burn off the mask

Over the tragedy of you?

She said, it doesn’t have to be like this

Yes it does, yes it doesn’t have to be

It doesn’t have to be like this

Yes it does, yes it does, yes it does

And every morning

You face the day to find

The joy of living

Is what you left behind

If you could only find a man

Who’s not yet dead inside

Maybe you could gut him out

And have a place to hide

She said, it doesn’t have to be like this

Yes it does, yes it doesn’t have to be

It doesn’t have to be like this

Yes it does, yes it does, yes it does

Yes it does

Yes it does

Yes it does

Yes it does
