Bob Wegner - The Daily Grind Lyrics

Trying to live it right, win without a fight
Please my heart without my mind
Never one too bothered to see
If there's more to life than me

We live laboriously, yet superficially
Doing all the things we think we need to be
Yet we are all convinced from birth
This is what our lives are worth

Hours and hours go by
All this needless wasted time
It should be a crime
Am I really blind in the daily grind

I wake up one day, I feel like I want to play
But then I remember my responsibilities
Is this the place I want to stay
If there was only another way

Days and weeks go by
Wondering if there's some time to see a friend over a glass of wine
Am I really blind in the daily grind

I'm coming to find my life's a pantomime
Too late to be the things we dreamed we'd be
Noticing these changes in me
Are we the only ones who see

Tell the kids we did our best, but now we need a rest
The pain makes me unbearably weak
Sorry son I'm busy now with regrets
I promise tomorrow I'll pay my debts

Months and years go by
While we still have the time
Cherish every moment we can find
Was I really blind in the daily grind

I was really blind in the daily grind
