Waking up at the crack of dawn
I aint seein the sun today
working my hands raw
for a boot in the ass and lousy pay
no room to get cut slack
ive gotta keep clothes on my broken back
All i know is failure
I've wandered too far off of track
uncertain, unwilling
dont wanna sing the same old song
each days more unfulfilling
another chance to prove im wrong
theres nothing i can do
to change your stubborn mind
cant you see im trying
or are you that fucking blind?
tremors in my fingers
tell me the days comin to an end
pour on my funeral, baby
no plans to make amends
i have my share of sins
that i still pay for till this day
take everything ive ever had
nothing i own is mine alone
you've taken all ive ever known
ive given every ounce of patience a man can have,
and gotten back every excuse in the book,
ive tried and tried to keep my life from crumbling at the touch,but it seems like im just asking for too fucking much
Given all that I thought I had, but I'm still (just a few dollars short)
Given all that I've ever had, but im still just a few dollars short
