lyrics

Every day you work so hard
Drivin’ back home in your broke down car
The fire in your eyes begins to fade
Wait for a minute and try to breath
Find yourself fallin’ back onto your knees
One of these days you’ll get out of this mess

And I ask myself why

There’s people layin’ back in limousines
While my friends can’t feed their families
Smokin’ up houses to get free
From the shots in the air surrounding me
I don’t know if I am meant to handle this
I don’t know if I’m meant to change this world

Preachers come to scream at me
Tell me I’m gonna burn if I don’t believe
Is that the way that you think your god works?
Late nights crying to the sky
No friends, no love and I’m asking why
Am I the only one that feels this way?

And I ask myself why

There’s people layin’ back in limousines
While my friends can’t feed their families
Smokin’ up houses to get free
From the shots in the air surrounding me
I don’t know if I am meant to handle this
I don’t know if I’m meant to change this world
Broken glass is spread amongst the pavement
An empty house and a broken hearted girl

“Why does this keep happening?
Everyday we wake up, go to work, eat, go to sleep.
Why do we spend our lives looking at screens
Watching other people live, faking our happiness
While behind closed doors we turn to the bottle
And wish we lived it.”

There’s people layin’ back in limousines
While my friends can’t feed their families
Smokin’ up houses to get free
From the shots in the air surrounding me
I don’t know if I am meant to handle this
I don’t know if I’m meant to change this world
Broken glass is spread amongst the pavement
An empty house and a broken hearted girl
