There's only one way we can get out of this alive
But I'm feeling tired, my eyes are drowsy, I am spent
It's how I wake up every dawn of every day
And I can't recall it being any other way
I know I haven't been quite myself of late
Or maybe I have been, is this how i will remain
I need a break and I don't mean two weeks in the sun
A break from being me just to see how I'd get on
I'm always finding something wrong
I'm overworked and underpaid
My back's too sore to lift anything today
But I don't want more money
I just want more of my own time
It's always the same story and it gets kinda boring
No matter where you hide
It'll eat you up inside
Til you've run out of all your self esteen
