You’re displaced and overcompensated
You’re a waste, but I’m the one who’s wasted underneath
I'll seek my value underneath

Wall to fucking wall depreciation
You twist my tongue with costly dividends
Twice the effort, half the outcome
And how can I step forward when there’s not much to step for?
I’m sinking lower with every growth spurt
Decay, decay, decay

I guess you’re just not wired that way
It must be nice to be so figured out
You’ve got a fire in your eyes and I’ve got a burning in my throat
The difference always bothered me but I kept it to myself

Wall to fucking wall depreciation
You twist my tongue with costly dividends
Twice the effort, half the outcome
Why won't I step forward when there’s so much to step for?
I’m sinking lower with every growth spurt
Decay, decay, decay
