Wasted Day

I had the dream again, where I was falling

Got no ball and chain

Got pills for the pain

And I'm ahead of the game

But I'm no where

Waiting to hit the ground, but fate kept stalling

Then I'm back to square root

Through the ladders and chutes

Work my ass off all day

But it's wasted

Woke up to the strangest sound, thought I heard you calling

Chorus:

Just another, Just another, Just another

Wasted Day (2X)

I had the dream again, that I was flying

I got 6 hours asleep

Then I am back on my feet

I'm just one of the sheep

And I can taste it

I couldn't get off the ground, but I kept trying

Can't eat this, Can't eat that

Cause it all makes you fat

And The Man wants you thin

Wants you tasteless

There you were in the blue background

Shaking your head and sighing

Chorus

There's a picture in the hall of a smiling younger me

Standing next to someone who looks like a smiling younger you

But we let that get away and since then everyday

Seems like such a waste

Chorus
