No one has the answers
There is no end
Not a day goes by without a fight
I'm not OK
But I want it so bad
It's worth it
Just as it has always been
I know there's a price to pay

Money I want you
I can't explain it
I just want you
You should be grimy but you're shiny

With you by my side, I go higher
Who will fill my empty soul
I want to ask, but my parents are asleep
If money can't buy happiness
How does one live?

How are we supposed to live?
Don't tell me the obvious, it's just cliché
Is this right?
Don't you be a liar
If I ask for answers
Would that make me a snob?
Dirty money, dirty yet you shine
Why just look when I can have
Dirty money, dirty yet you shine
Rather be a spoiled brat than a cheapskate

What is it?
It shines as bright as the sun
It's a headache in hindsight
Shadows follow the bright
Honestly I'm scared, just let me go
I want to ignore you
But I think I need you
Back to the days I didn't know you

With you by my side, I go higher
Who will fill my empty soul
I want to ask, but my parents are asleep
If money can't buy happiness
How does one live?

How are we supposed to live?
Don't tell me the obvious, it's just cliché
Is this right?
Don't you be a liar
If I ask for answers
Would that make me a snob?
I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you

Yet you shine
