Number One

LÆON

The clock ticks loud in the hollow room
Where the work playing on the CEO's tune
Another soul sold for a golden name
Playing the game, drowning in shame

Whispers rise through the cubicle maze
Knives in the back for the corporate raise
Smiles are sharp like a polished lie
Climbing the ladder, stepping on high

Oh, the money sings a hollow song
But the heart just withers before too long
What's the cost of the throne you chase?
A soul erased, a stolen grace

Golden chains, they shine so bright
Binding souls in the endless fight
Every handshake hides a gun
In this masquerade, all wants to be a number one

The boardroom lights burn cold and white
Deals are sealed in the dead of night
Promises made, but they're built to break
Another name on the take, another stake

The coffee's bitter, the air is thin
Another dollar, another sin
They trade their dreams for a corner suite
But the victory's sour, the taste is deceit

Oh, the money sings a hollow song
But the heart just withers before too long
What's the cost of the throne you chase?
A soul erased, a stolen grace

Golden chains, they shine so bright
Binding souls in the endless fight
Every handshake hides a gun
In this masquerade, all wants to be a number one

Watch a bump bump bump bump bump
Bump bump bump bump bump bump
All wants to be a number one
Watch a bump bump bump bump bump
Bump bump bump bump bump bump
All wants to be a number one
