A family man in the midst of
a total breakdown
seeks refuge inebriated state
As he thinks to himself how did
life pass me by - somewhere down
The line I forgot how to live
now every day is just another chore,
Another
day, another week, another year.
The world slowly turns, but this
rut never ends - one blink of an
eye then it`s gone.
So he puts his faith in the Almighty
Lord up above, he`s told for all good
men Heaven awaits
Well I can`t wait
any longer when`s
it my turn to see the light that`ll
come and take my troubles away?
Now he spends his days preaching
what he does not believe, to a world
that`s forgotten how to live
and he can`t understand the empty
Feelin` inside that seems to grow
every hour, every day.
What`s it take to be a man, when
everything I`m taught I can`t believe
And everything is thrown right in my
face?
I wake up everyday, I live here among
The dead and I am one of them. Is
this how it`s gotta be? For you and me
Open your eyes take a look a
round think nice thoughts then
it`s off to work I go!
Now it`s back to the hustle and it`s
back to the beat
It`s back to another forty hour
week.
Soon that weekend will come
I`ll get to have a little fun then
it`s back to my forty hour grave
