The banker

[Verse 1]
From the smallest state to the biggest city
Back to minimum wage, getting unpaid
I've been there before
If I lose my way
Man, it won't be pretty
With my shoes unlaced, tripping onstage
Make a break for the door

[Chorus]
Now the city don't sleep
And we take the stairs for the exercise
How does anyone meet
With the fakest stare and the big club lights?
Thought I lost my key, well
It turns out it was right there in the door
Now it's looking at me like there ain't no use in what I'm fighting for
Singing on and on till my voice goes hoarse
And the band won't play
If I lose it all
Will I still be here tomorrow?
But today I know that I'm safe
It shows, 'cause
The banker told me it's cold outside
And there ain't no use in what I'm fighting for

[Verse 2]
Do I need some help
Or are the stars aligning?
Find it harder to tell
Harder to write
Harder to reminisce
I never lose myself
I'll be fighting till
The banker tells me I'm outta luck
And there ain't no loan to bring me back from this

[Chorus]
Now the city don't sleep
And we take the stairs for the exercise
How does anyone meet
With the fakest stare and the big club lights?
Thought I lost my key, well
It turns out it was right there in the door
Now it's looking at me like there ain't no use in what I'm fighting for
Singing on and on till my voice goes hoarse
And the band won't play
If I lose it all
Will I still be here tomorrow?
But today I know that I'm safe
It shows, 'cause
The banker told me it's cold outside
And there ain't no use in what I'm fighting for
