medicate myself

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
