where did i go wrong

[intro] I don't get how you do it.
[prechorus] Get up and function. Normal day. same Old Stage. Same old play.
[chorus 1] What went wrong in my head. That I can't wake out of bed And be just like everyone else. Tried To get a job. Looking for the signs Hiring urgently. Urgent apparently doesn't include me.
[Percusion break]
[Verse 1] To be fair i kinda half assed it. Only applied ten Or twenty places And talked to ten or twenty faces Who told me to apply online.
[Verse 2] But who would get gassed up to do the same thing every day With the same old wheel And same old clay 
[chorus 2] Same dirty hands can't wash em. And the stench never rubs off. Come back to a home That smells more like work Cause you haven't washed your dirty clothes. And the work shoes by the door Remind you When you walk by That your real life is work And this escape is borrowed time.
[Electric Guitar solo]
[Verse 3] more time working than not. Between the drive and the stress And getting dressed And venting about how your doing your best. But sinking in the sand. Without a plan.
[Verse 4] You got a promotion Or a raise But how much is your life worth in pay. Two more dollars an hour Or maybe fifty cents that Doesnt Make any. No not really.
[hook 1] But do or die. Show initiative. Show intelligence. Go the extra mile So they make you run ten more And give you a pat on the back as you go out the door.
[melodic interlude]
[drum solo]
[Verse 5] Work five more years. One more bar up the ladder.  Just ten More years of Bakin To be raw batter.
[Verse 6] I need money don't get me wrong. I'd be working instead Of writing this song If I had a job.
[outro] But keep on up the stairs. Keep pulling out your hairs. You're already on the second level Of a hundred story building So keep building their dream instead of Yours.
[End] So you can come home to An empty fridge and unfinished chores.
