"Keep Us Thirsty" lyrics

"Keep Us Thirsty"

Don't forget that everyone's faking it
Dressed up, dressed down, no one's making it
Are you wondering why we can't sleep at night?
Do you know how much string is left on the kite?

Tie your shoes together now
And dance like you love to fall down
The sky looks better from the ground

Desperate for a happy ending
But is it just a sick beginning?
So afraid there is no mercy
A drink designed to keep us thirsty
Yeah
Yeah

Pick apart the ideas that they feed to you
Like grow up, put out, burn a bridge or two
Are you hoping the fire will eat you up?
Are you scared that you'll finally fill your cup?

And when you're overcome with doubt
Just part the veil and give a shout
The other side is awfully loud

Desperate for a happy ending
But is it just a sick beginning?
So afraid there is no mercy
A drink designed to keep us thirsty
Yeah
Yeah

Desperate for a happy ending
But is it just a sick beginning?
So afraid there is no mercy
A drink designed to keep us thirsty
Yeah
Yeah
