matthew ebel - this too shall pass lyrics

this is not what i had planned
the passing days are not so grand
the maseratis and the mansions
are just castles in the sand
what i’ve got to get me by
are my ambitions and a tie
i wear to work; a well+paid jerk
i’m so successful i could cry

i work all day and still
i’m stuck here on my ass
i’d run away but
i keep smokin’ too much grass
lord, give me patience
and i need it fast
oh all this too shall pass
pay my bills and feed my face
i’m living large in second place
’cause i know soon i’ll own the moon
and live the life in outer sp+ce:
a rocket ship to get me there
a golden ipod, that seems fair
then i awake+ oops, my mistake
my motto still reads “i don’t care.”

it’s not like there’s too many walls
it’s not like i don’t have the b+lls
it’s just that i, well, i don’t know how
to live my life in the here and now

i’m punching out, it’s time to go
my days are numbered, this i know
but as it turns out no one burns out
’till they think they’re in control

i work all day and
take my time to smell the grass
i’d run away but i know
i can’t run that fast
life may be short
but boy is it a blast
and all this too shall pass
this too shall pass
this too shall pass
