Lyrics
I had a dream when I was young
I can't remember what it was
But I do remember the feeling it gave
Haven't had a dream like that in a while
Oh, but I try, yes I do try
But it seems my imagination
Has faded
Now It seems I can't even imagine why
I let myself have hope
I guess I should've known
That It was doomed right from the start
So I will live, I will die
I will spend every minute that's left of my life
Doing what I'm told to do
So I can
Stay
Stay Unfulfilled
I can't risk risking it, 'cause if it don't pay off
I won't be able to eat
So I will
Stay
Stay Unfulfilled
I can't risk risking it, 'cause if it don't pay off
I won't be able to eat tonight
I have grown up
to resent the man I've become
For reasons that don't even
Seem to clear any more
But what is clear, is that I dont
It's clear to me
Recognize that blank stare
That greets me, in my mirror
Greets me in my mirror
So I will live, I will die
I will spend every minute that's left of my life
Doing what I'm told to do
So I can
Stay
Stay Unfulfilled
I can't risk risking it, 'cause if it don't pay off
I won't be able to eat
So I will
Stay
Stay Unfulfilled
I can't risk risking it, 'cause if it don't pay off
I won't be able to eat tonight
Everybody's familiar with the feeling
That things are not as they should be
That you're not successful enough
Your relationships, not satisfying enough
Pop culture, advertising, and social media
Make this feeling worse by reminding you
That aiming for anything else than your dream job is failure
And thus we're stuck in a cruel loop of chronic dissatisfaction,
That makes you outwards with envy and inwards
With disappointment
Stay
Stay Unfulfilled
I can't risk risking it, 'cause if it don't pay off
I won't be able to eat
So I will
Stay
Stay Unfulfilled
I can't risk risking it, 'cause if it don't pay off
I won't be able to eat
So I will Stay
Unfulfilled
I will stay unfulfilled
I will stay unfulfilled 'till the day that I die
'Cause I got nothin' better to do
With my life than to stay
Just to stay unfulfilled
'Cause I won't be able to eat
Tonight
