You Will Own Nothing

Drop

You will own nothing

You will own nothing

Verse 1

Cold rooms where the cameras never blink

Names on a screen that I have never seen

They shake my hand and smile at the lens

I sign the line and I forget my name

Pre-Chorus

Everything is rented

Everything is theirs

Everything is rented

Nothing here is mine

Chorus

You will own nothing and you will be happy

You will own nothing and you will be happy

Smile for the summit smile for the deal

You will own nothing and you will be happy

Drop

Nothing left to hold

Nothing left to hold

Verse 2

Ladders climb and the floor slides away

Men in gray suits map the world in a hall

I paid my rent to a company store

I traded my keys for a smoother lie

Pre-Chorus

Everything is borrowed

Everything is leased

Everything is borrowed

Nothing here is mine

Chorus

You will own nothing and you will be happy

You will own nothing and you will be happy

Smile for the summit smile for the deal

You will own nothing and you will be happy

Bridge

Something moves beneath the podium

Scaled and patient scaled and calm

Something moves beneath the podium

And it knows my name

Drop

Own nothing

Own nothing

Own nothing

Be happy

Chorus

You will own nothing and you will be happy

You will own nothing and you will be happy

Smile for the summit smile for the deal

You will own nothing and you will be happy

Post-Chorus

Nothing nothing nothing

Happy happy happy

Nothing nothing nothing

Happy happy happy
