Woke up with the dawn light
Doing more than my might
Chasing dreams out of sight
Filling my days so tight
Running fast on empty
Tasks that don't satisfy me
Giving all that's inside me
Counting hours anxiously
Empty buckets how they fall
Giving all I'm nothing at all
Running hard against the wall
Empty buckets as I call
Stories in the lines I tread
Still I'm left feeling dead
Overfunction underfed
Too much work inside of my head
Frivolous tasks I pursue
In the end what's left to do
Empty feelings break on through
Bucket echoes what's true
Empty buckets how they fall
Giving all I'm nothing at all
Running hard against the wall
Empty buckets as I call
Stories in the lines I tread
Still I'm left feeling dead
Overfunction underfed
Too much work inside of my head
Frivolous tasks I pursue
In the end what's left to do
Empty feelings break on through
Bucket echoes what's true
Empty buckets how they fall
Giving all I'm nothing at all
Running hard against the wall
Empty buckets as I call
