Lyrics
Circumstance
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Are you happy with your life?
You make just enough to scrape by
You pay the rent, and your check is spent
Where did last weekend go
You wasted all your flow and you dont
remember where it went
Drinking smoking cigarettes
Working but you're still in debt
Thinking losing self-esteem.
How can this be, happening?
You might have the temporary, superficial happiness
that you buy with money you don't have.
Do you tell yourself, it's just the first time or maybe the lasttime
Which is your circumstance
Life is not a job or a career.
Living is not smoking and drinking beer
A gift to receive and not to take
The free thinking choice is yours to make
