I wake up to the light
My dreams were pretty good last night
Another day to fight the fight

Oh no, I'm already late
For the job that I hate
Everybody's got to do what they don't wanna do

Day after day it's getting mundane and I'm bored

Everything's hysterical

Nothing is a miracle
And everybody's right
And as I'm waxing lyrical

My life is still so typical
I think I'm losing sight


I'm getting' by

I'm counting to ten

And I'm in love again
Trying to keep my head in line
I give and you take

Oh, I made a mistake
You never do what I want you to do
Day after day I'm going insane I'm alone


It's something kind of pitiful
I'm feeling kind of cynical

It's never black or white
They say that I'm relational
But never confrontational

I was never one to fight

Workin' at the 9-5 a little bit of over time I'm laboring into the night

Watching as the minutes fly I'm waving to my life goodbye
I think I'm taking my time
Where did everybody go and all the joy I used to know?

The mystery's history now

Sometimes I cry, I hold my head high

I'm sure that I'm gonna get by
My vision is hazy and sometimes I'm lazy
But someday it will be alright


Rise up, keep pressing on
