Because Someone Died

Yeah.
Yeah
I woke up where the clocks don't care
Same street life, same thin air
Kept my heart in a rented room
Paid in hours, paid in fume said
I was fine, said
I was free
But everything kept asking me why
The days just circle back like wheels on iron
Steel on track
Track track
I learned the weight of empty wind
Smiles with nowhere left to live
I chased the shine
I knew the cost
Still felt cheaper than the loss
Every mirror told the truth
