Lyrics:

You give up your dreams they turn to bread,
Your kids get fed, but then what's left,
A rat in a wheel running for crumbs,
I'm snug and settled down,
In an antiseptic town, yeah.

At stop lights,
Looking round for understanding eyes,
Someone to save us from these spaces,
We pile high the wreckage money buys,
Parade it for uninterested faces.

And we make our own traps and collapse in em,
Just for a little piece of land,
To put our lives all over the walls.

And we're waiting for the payoff,
Has it ever been worth it,
When you never seen a jackpot,
How you gonna believe it,
You gonna believe it.

You want to be heard and respected,
Not laughed at and shot down,
And the structures that keep you protected,
Tree roots pull you to the ground.

Fill your blood with drugs it doesn't matter,
Take your share of women, take the young men too,
Nothing ever give you what you're after,
Reach out for what's real in this world,
And don't feel 'cause they will beat it out of you.

Yeah, we're waiting for the payoff,
Has it ever been worth it,
Oh I've never seen a jackpot,
Don't know if I believe it.

Things I've done and wished I'd not,
Things I saw but didn't stop,
It's all in my head, it's all in my head,
I broke a promise to myself,
I sold you out to save my skin,
It's all in my head, it's all in my head,
It's all in my head, it's all in my head.

And we're waiting for the payoff,
Has it ever been worth it,
I've never seen a jackpot,
Don't know if I believe it.

And we're waiting for the payoff,
Has it ever been worth it,
I've never seen a jackpot,
I don't know if I believe it,
Don't know how you believe it.
