lyrics

I've been feeling crazy, let me explain
It's been all work, no play, and it's making me strained
I'm getting what I need, but never getting what I crave
You talk of freedom, but we both know I'm your slave
It's all work, no play, and it's getting me down, down, down, down
Getting me down

With each new day I grow more tired
I'm feeling lost and uninspired
What once brought me to life is now my daily grind
I sold my soul to the man and left my passion far behind
It's all work, no play, and it's getting me down, down, down, down
Getting me down

Now can you understand why I'm this way?
All my hope is draining with each day
I wish I could leave it all behind and finally learn to live
Go out and see the world, take in all it has to give
But I can't go away, 'cause I gotta pay bills
Gotta get around
Gotta have a future
Gotta invest
I just wanna live life
