Better Than Nothing

I'm not a loser but I never win

You call me a slacker but I never had a chance

My failure is fueling your success

I gave you my body, the best years of my life

I saved all my pennies but I can't buy back the time

I lost my youth, my heart, my mind

But you still treat me like a child

You can be replaced, you can be retired

It's better than nothing, what we give you to survive

We gave you cakes and candy a circus every night

And now you want health and welfare? this affects the bottom line

Whoever said that life was fair? you should be grateful for a share

People are starving everywhere

We can be divided we can be contained

But it's all temporary there's a price you'll have to pay

You hold the power we have the numbers in this war

Better than nothing doesn't cut it anymore
