Lyrics
Money Pool
It's time to drain the money pool
Sharks can't breathe or swim without it
Liberty can't breathe or stand within it
Someone cut the life support, It's time to drain the money pool
Maybe my heart is not as strong as I would have it be
Maybe my road is not as long as I would hope to see
Somehow I still make my way in spite of the debris
Finding peace and sanity inside eternity
Re-runs are what's on today played on hi-def screens
It hurts to watch the bitter scenes, but hard to look away
I'm not for sale and I don't buy most of what is sold
Life's not a commercial or conversant line on hold
It's time to drain the money pool
Sharks can't breathe or swim without it
Liberty can't breathe or stand within it
Someone cut the life support, It's time to drain the money pool
Maybe my memory's not as bad as I remember it
Maybe the things that I forgot are better to forget
Sometimes when I sit and breathe I stop the world somehow
That's when I simply exist and just remember now
Childhood's just some snapshots blurred Polaroids in Kodachrome
They bulldozed down my family home not long ago I heard
It's up for sale, I'll not apply, It's all just history past
Though life is born anew each day, it's over way too fast
Addicted to technology, a prison self erected
Overwhelmed and compromised, hooked up, but disconnected
Disaster looms on every front while most just keep on wading
The water soothes and pacifies while the shore just keeps on fading
It's time to drain the money pool
Sharks can't breathe or swim without it
Liberty can't breathe or stand within it
Someone cut the life support, It's time to drain the money pool
Liberty can't stand or breathe within it
Someone cut the life support, It's time to drain the money pool
