Lyrics

you wake up in the morning with the sun burning nightmares out of your eyes
and the voice on your alarm clock radio says it's later than you may realize
you stagger into the bathroom to purge yourself and find a way back to life
but there's nothing in the medicine cabinet to take away the pain and the strife
the kitchen poisons your body and the television tries to make up your mind
and you're trying not to think of killing yourself and leaving it all behind
throw on some clothes and get ready to make your way out into the street
overworked and underpaid like everyone else you try to make ends meet

the promises politicians make to get elected - don't expect them to keep
there's a reason why religions call their followers flocks of sheep
your company will kick you to the curb just to maintain a bottom line
and no one gives a damn about feelings - not yours not mine
some say a small group of people runs everything behind the scenes
and if they could they'd slip into your mind and steal your dreams
so if you're feeling downtrodden and the wind is fading from your sails
take warning and take heart in these final words...
