I got my day job and coffee, cigarettes
Another day another dollar spent
Get high to get by, only at my expense
Could you lend a couple dimes till I get my next check?
I call off and stay in bed past ten
Morale's gone down and stayed in the past tense
As the years go by I start to lose my sense
22 with regrets and existential dread
American dream is gone and faded
Cause the youth's gone dry and we're all sedated
I was just 18, singing how I'm jaded
Hoping I could tell my mom that I made it
Pop said "You better stop complaining"
"Cause your hands gone soft and your mind is wasted"
"Always on that phone and the new sensation"
"Where did we go wrong with the new generation?"
It's all the same to me
Nothin in this life for free
Degenerate kid do you need a quick fix?
Do all your friends say "you're such a bitch"?
It's about damn time, to get away for a bit
Could you hold my head?
Cause I'm losin it'
Dirty blue jeans that never quite fit
9-5 shift ain't worth this shit
Its about damn time, to get away for a bit
Could you hold my head?
Cause I'm losin it'
I'm losin it'
