I know this comes as no surprise   but the wool's been pulled over our eyes for years  And all the while we sit with our legs crossed   as some poor bastard finds he's lost ten years    That's just another day I live inside my head  I'm tired of all the ways that I wish I was dead  It's been so many years I've finally figured out a way to keep a good man down    I locked you up and threw away the key to all your better days, my bad, my friend  There's so many things you'll never be, many things you'll never have, so sad, oh well    That's just another day I live inside my head  I'm tired of all the ways that I wish I was dead  It's been so many years I've finally figured out a way to keep a good man down     As you're floating through the paces of your day  There's a burning need to get yourself away  Everywhere temptation starts to breed  The things you know you'll never need to   satisfy that greed  Satisfy that greed    I know this comes as no surprise but the wool's been pulled over our eyes for years, my dear    That's just another day I live inside my head  I'm tired of all the ways that I wish I was dead  It's been so many years I've finally figured out a way to keep a good man down
