Government institutions and haste, am i right?

--------------------------------------------------------

They tell me, “Just hold on, we’re working on it,”
They tell me, “Fill this out, we’ll let you know.”
I check my email, the inbox is empty,
Guess I’ll keep sinking while they move slow.

I break my back just to stay afloat,
But they don’t care if I drown.
I’m screaming loud but the lines are closed,
No one hears a single sound.

I’M TIRED, I’M DONE, I’M RUNNING ON FUMES!
They’re dragging their feet while I circle my tomb!
I’M BROKE, I’M BEAT, I’M BARELY ALIVE!
Another week and I won’t survive!

(WON’T SURVIVE!)

The suits all sit in their offices laughing,
Counting their hours like I count my debt.
They’ll never feel what it’s like to be drowning,
They’ll never work ‘til there’s nothing left.

I beg for scraps while they sign their checks,
They make me crawl, make me wait.
I’m just a file in their stacked-up mess,
But to me, this shit ain’t a game!

I’M TIRED, I’M DONE, I’M RUNNING ON FUMES!
They’re dragging their feet while I circle my tomb!
I’M BROKE, I’M BEAT, I’M BARELY ALIVE!
Another week and I won’t survive!

(WON’T SURVIVE!)

"Thank you for your patience. Your call is very important to us…"
"Press one to wait longer. Press two to scream into the void."
“Press three to give up, ‘cause no one’s listening!”

SIT AND WAIT! (Sit and wait!)
DROWN IN DEBT! (Drown in debt!)
BURIED UNDER! (Buried under!)
PAPERWORK COFFIN! (Yeah!)

I’M TIRED, I’M DONE, I’M RUNNING ON FUMES!
They’re dragging their feet while I circle my tomb!
I’M BROKE, I’M BEAT, I’M BARELY ALIVE!
Another week and I won’t survive!

(WON’T SURVIVE!)

Fucking bureaucrats...
