lyrics

The bell rings out, eyes stay closed
The button gifts me another ten
It's not enough to save me from the dread
longing for each day to end
Wishing our lives away

The more it changes the more it stays the same
The little that we do, never changes the game
It barely pays
Running through the maze
Only one way through
Deja vu

Desperate for a way to advance
Stretch for the next rung overhead
Expecting for the sun to be brighter
But on the other side the grass is just as dead
Reach up and try again

The more it changes the more it stays the same
The little that we do, never changes the game
It barely pays
Running through the maze
Only one way through
Deja vu

At home time finally dilates
Big screen keeping me transfixed
Too busy to change during the day
At night too exhausted to exist
If only there was time

The more it changes the more it stays the same
The little that we do, never changes the game
It barely pays
Running through the maze
Only one way through
Deja vu

"The Dream" is our mountain god
Work hard and our souls will be fed
And the glorious journey to the summit
Is to step on everyone else's head
The dream is real

The more it changes the more it stays the same
The little that we do, never changes the game
It barely pays
Running through the maze
Only one way through
Deja vu

Keep the dream alive
Keep the dream alive
Keep the dream alive (The Canadian dream)
Keep the dream alive (The British dream)
Keep the dream alive (The European dream)
Keep the dream alive (The American dream)

Only in your sleep
