Killing Time

from Better. by Gus Rachels

/

lyrics

Every day I’m giving up eight hours of my time
Working for the money that I need to stay alive
I could try to change it why I don’t I don’t know why
Giving up on life has become my favorite pastime

The moment it hits five well you know I’m going home
Throwing open my front door exhausted and alone
I’m gonna lay in bed all night and stare at my phone
Until the hours tick on by and I pass out in my clothes

And every day on earth well I know just how they’ll go
And ever since my birth well I just don’t wanna grow
And I know what I’m worth if you can go below zero
I’m killing time, I’m killing time
Till time kills me

As the weeks go by I lose all my sense of time
And I don’t want to realize that there’s more to my life
I live on autopilot building up vacation time
Counting off the Fridays till I wither away and die

And when I don’t exist you won’t remember my face
And when I don’t exist well I won’t leave a trace
And when I don’t exist at least there’ll be a little more space
I’m killing time, I’m killing time
Till time kills me
