lyrics

Wake up late, peel the cobwebs off my face
My tired eyes aren't up to face the day
But it's time to go so put on dirty clothes
And go out to waste away
Tedium is so familiar
When everyday's the same

There's no passion in daily life
But the stress gets high

I need a small escape
My life is rusting over
This dusty day to day
Has left me cold and older
I want to break away and feel my worries fade
But the time keeps pulling away from me
And I'm starting to feel my age

Wake up yet again, desk pressed on my face
And it seems like I can't even make it through a day
Without sleeping
Everyone seems so comfortable
When my life is all but on fire
But no one really wants to hear all that
So when they ask, I'm not sad, I'm tired

There's no kindness in daily life
and the stress gets high

I need a small escape
My life is rusting over
This dusty day to day
Has left me cold and older
I want to break away and feel my worries fade
But the time keeps pulling away from me
And I'm starting to feel my age

I need a small escape
My life is rusting over
This dusty day to day
Has left me cold and older
I want to break away and feel my worries fade
And the time's still pulling away from me
But this song is my escape
