lyrics

Woke up late again, my mind is, at its' end,
I been, workin' for the man.
Just to live my life, they pay me but I pay the, price.
Money earned is, money spent, and I, cannot, afford my rent but
I'm doing the best I, I can.
Is it 8:30 already? Work's been steady.
I need, a drink.

Stayed up late again, my body is at its' end
and I been medicating, from the can.
Just to save my life. It may cost me but I'll pay any price.
My money is well spent, and I cannot, afford my rent, but
I'm doing the best that I can.
Am I drunk already? My steps are unsteady.
I must need, another, drink.

Fell asleep again, my soul, is at its' end,
and I been wonderin' , where I am..

Look back on my life, It has cost me, but I took the biggest slice.
No money, no more rent,
these feelings i'm feeling, have gotten me so spent,
I did the best, that I can.
Am I dead already? My heartbeat's unsteady,
I must need, another, dream......
