[Intro]

[Verse 1]
The signature is drying on the contract page
I traded every weekend for the wage
I stepped inside the system and I locked the metal cage
They told me that the title was the holy grail
While hiding every warning from the ones who fail
Ambition was a rocket on a dying trend
Now sitting in a mansion with no real friend

[Pre-Chorus]
Success is mostly boredom in a suit
The tree is dead and rotting at the root
The fantasy is wearing thin...
And I realized the state that I am in!

[Chorus]
So finally the blinders hit the floor!
I’m walking past the security at the door!
The poster was a lie, the trailer just a trick
The candy was so sweet it made my stomach sick
And the summit is lonely, the wind is freezing cold
A heavy layer of dust is covering the gold
I followed every arrow to the promised land...
But now I understand?
(Music stops for a split second)
It's sleight of hand.

[Verse 2]
Vacation days are piling on the desk unused
The younger version of myself is so confused
Promoting mediocrity to pay the bills
A temporary cure for all the wasted skills
Reputation is a bubble that is sure to burst
Remembering the hunger that I had at first!

[Pre-Chorus]
Success is mostly boredom in a suit
So I'm cutting down the tree to save the fruit!

[Bridge]
The luxury is a prison
The benefit is a lie
I’m giving back the position
And waving it all goodbye!

[Piano Solo]

[Chorus]
So finally the blinders hit the floor!
I’m walking past the security at the door!
The poster was a lie, the trailer just a trick
But now I understand?
Now I understand?!
It's sleight of hand!

[Outro]
[Piano fading out, Upbeat final chord]
The commercial break is over.
The screen is going black.
I’m walking to the exit.
And I’m never looking back.
