Lyrics
Times are bad Don’t feel no love in the world no more
What I once had She put in a box outside the door
Nobody cares If I live or freeze to death
They don’t care - Where I breath my last breath
Sipping from a paper bag
Make the best of the time we have
I’m not one To cry over missed opportunities
Always earned my way Not looking for anything to be handed to me
Government cheats me out of everything I own
Then they turn off the heat - when it’s certain they can’t get no more
Youthful schemes Smothered by reality
Blissful dreams always are risky
Hopes are broken Now somebody’s a clown
Always Always Somebody's there to tear you down
Ain’t moaning about yesterday Yesterday is a closed chapter
What I chased then Today - No longer matters
Put yourself right in grave Worrying that a way
Sometimes in life- Everything just shatters
