How do you document real life
When real life's getting more like fiction each day
Headlines bread-lines blow my mind
And now this deadline eviction or pay rent
How do you write a song when the chords sound wrong
Though they once sounded right and rare
When the notes are sour
Where is the power you once had to ignite the air
We're hungry and frozen some life that we've chosen
How we gonna pay How we gonna pay
How we gonna pay Last year's rent
How do you start a fire when there's nothing to burn
And it feels like something's stuck in your flue
How can you generate heat when you can't feel your feet
And they're turning blue
You light up a mean blaze with posters and screenplays
How we gonna pay How we gonna pay
How we gonna pay Last year's rent
How do you stay on your feet when on every street
It's trick or treat and tonight it's trick
Welcome back to town I should lie down
Everything's brown and uh-oh I feel sick
Where is he Getting dizzy
How we gonna pay How we gonna pay
How we gonna pay Last year's rent
Allison Baby - You Sound Sad
I Don't Believe Those Two
After Everything I've Done
Ever Since Our Wedding
I'm Dirt - They'll See
I Can Help Them All Out In The Long Run
Forces Are Gathering
Forces Are Gathering
Can't Turn Away
Forces Are Gathering
The music ignites the night with passionate fire
The narration crackles and pops with incendiary wit
Zoom in as they burn the past to the ground
And feel the heat of the future's glow
How do you leave the past behind
When it keeps finding ways to get to your heart
It reaches way down deep and tears you inside out
'Til you're torn apart rent
How can you connect in an age
Where strangers landlords lovers
Your own blood cells betray
What binds the fabric together
When the raging shifting winds of change
Keep ripping away
Draw a line in the sand and then make a stand
Use your camera to spar use your guitar
When they act tough you call their bluff
We're not gonna pay we're not gonna pay
We're not gonna pay last year's rent
This year's rent next year's rent
Rent rent rent rent rent
We're not gonna pay rent
'Cause everything is rent
