Medicate Myself - Just Surrender

I’m a slave to my job

And it’s driving me crazy

The man is breathing down my neck

I go to sleep

So I can wake up really early

You can take the money back

And don’t you believe I’ll take my pay

Down to the corner store

And education’s what I needed

I need to drink a whole lot more

I need a way to get away

It’s the life that we lead

Another day, another dollar

What’s there left to believe

Born and raised

Just to live inside this cell

I’ll medicate myself

As I cruise the city streets

Busy with shuffled feet

No one

With their eyes looking up at the sky

They found their place in line

I don’t want to be a ghostly shell

Of who I am

I could never leave my dreams

For someone else’s plan

I need a way to get away

It’s the life that we lead

Another day, another dollar

What’s there left to believe

Born and raised

Just to live inside this cell

I’ll medicate myself

I need a way to get away

It’s the life that we lead

You’re here today, you’re gone tomorrow

What’s there left to believe

Fold the covers

And I crawl inside my shell

I’ll medicate myself

I need a way to get away

It’s the life that we lead

Another day, another dollar

What’s there left to believe

Born and raised

Just to live inside this cell

I’ll medicate myself

I need a way to get away

It’s the life that we lead

You’re here today, you’re gone tomorrow

What’s there left to believe

Fold the covers

And I crawl inside my shell

I’ll medicate myself
