Merchandise

and so we are born, unknowing right from wrong

and then we are sold, just do as you're told and you will belong

so we do as we must, forever searching for trust

but you always fall short, alone on the court, be careful don't rust

when you're falling behind, and dragging along

don't be surprised, when you open your eyes to find everyone gone

so you stand and try again, feeling stronger than ten

but no matter how hard, it's not in the cards, there are no real friends

under it all everyone is the same

just flesh and blood with a different name

day in day out all playing the game

down to the core we all feel the pain

and it's a lesson to learn, that you find at the turn

to count on yourself, for that is the wealth that you have earned

when the roses are dead, and the violets are due

why still pretend, that the fairy tale end has meaning for you

under it all everyone is the same

just flesh and blood with a different name

day in day out all playing the game

right to the core we all feel pain

i feel the pain

and the answer is near, it's always been there

just follow your heart, to take you afar and away from your fear

at the end of the road, having made it back home

when we lay down for night, at the end of our flight we have traveled alone

under it all everyone is the same

just flesh and blood with a different name

day in day out all playing the game

right to the end we all feel the pain

i feel the pain
