I'm a slave to my job   And it's driving me crazy   The man is breathing down my neck   I go to sleep   So I can wake up really early   You can take the money back      And don't you believe I'll take my pain   Down to the corner store   And education what I needed   I need to drink a whole lot more      I need a way to get away   It's the life that we lead   Another day, another dollar   What's there left to believe?   Born and raised   Just to live inside this cell   I'll medicate myself      As I cruise the city streets   Busy with shuffled feet   No one   With their eyes looking up at the sky   They found their place in line   I don't want to be a ghostly shell   Of who I am   I could never leave my dreams   For someone else's plan      I need a way to get away   It's the life that we lead   Another day, another dollar   What's there left to believe   Born and raised   Just to live inside this cell   I'll medicate myself      I need a way to get away   It's the life that we lead   You're here today, you're gone tomorrow   What's there left to believe?   Fold the covers   And I crawl inside my shell   I'll medicate myself      I need a way to get away   It's the life that we lead   Another day, another dollar   What's there left to believe   Born and raised   Just to live inside this cell   I'll medicate myself      I need a way to get away   It's the life that we lead   You're here today, you're gone tomorrow   What's there left to believe?   Fold the covers   And I crawl inside my shell   I'll medicate myself
