from the album “the Machine”

i’m just a sad and broken
man without a cause
i’m typing ones and zeros
until I am exhausted
the numbers staring back
at me upon the screen
what kind of hell is this
please tell me it’s a dream
long days, longer nights, no delights
(how do you get away?)
no sleep, stay awake, gonna break
(how do you get away?)
save my soul, growing old
dying more, just a little bit
every day
i’ve got a 5 year plan
I think will set me free
and i’ve been working now
forever patiently
i’ve been here 7 days
I don’t think I will make it
if I can’t get the wheel to bend
then by god i’ll break it
long days, longer nights, no delights
(how do you get away?)
no sleep, stay awake, gonna break
(how do you get away?)

sore neck, sore eyes, sore everything.
(how do you get away?)
no life, no life, no life
