Lyrics

Something Missing

His golden reputation
was years in preparation
so smart

He found himself the good life
and boy did he deserve it
he worked so hard

Yet everyday
There's something missing
Yet everyday
There's something

Your golden education
Is fuel for your frustration too smart
Surrender to temptation
Through years of mutilation
You played your part

Yet everyday
There's something missing
Yet everyday
There's something

Oh don't you know we're all about to choke
Well the news told me so
Almost letting go
Oh don't you know we're all about to choke
Well the news told me so
Almost letting go
Should I?

There's something missing
Yet everyday
There's something
Oh oh oh oh
