Crashing Down

I feel like
All I want is to make a decent living
I work long hours and I’m trying to be persistent
Rejecting over time would be a weak decision
I just wanna look at my bank account and see some digits
As a kid I reached for the stars my dreams were vivid
But what I’ve become is not what the younger me envisioned
I thought the future would be so different
And the clock is running I can hear it ticking
And I’m being distant
Neglecting my social life
I leave my place in the morning and I come home at night
I think of work when I close my eyes
I put my dreams and my hopes aside
I feel empty and alone inside
It’s like whenever I made money — I sold my time
And I’m taken for granted
But I never take any chances
Just thinking about losing my job is making me panic
God Damnit
I can’t stand it
I guess the company’s taking advantage
Of me until the day that I vanish
Off the face of the planet
Chorus (Lisa Benjamin)
When the sky comes crashing down
Turn your life around
Because your time is running out
It’s the life in your years that count
I feel like
Luxurious are starting to become necessities
So many things I’m supposed to buy so people don’t think less of me
Society makes me believe that I need it desperately
My greed got the best of me
I want happiness but I can’t find the recipe
I want new clothes and a better car
But I disregard
My money problems and just keep swiping my credit card
I know that getting out of debt is hard
I wish there was a way to press restart
These dead presidents possessed my heart
In the blink of an eye my whole damn life fell apart
And I’m tossing and turning all night long cuz my mind’s always racing
I regret every dime that I wasted
How could I be so blind and impatient
I was striving for greatness
But reality smacks me right in the face when
I get threats in the mail cuz I’m behind on my payments
And I hate the fact
I’m unable to escape the trap
It will take years to pay it back
Damn if only I could change the past
I crush my bottle and break the glass
Punch the wall like a maniac
It just makes me mad
My bright future — fades to black
