I've been killing myself
slow and steady
killing myself
and I don't know why
I've been killing myself
and I'm not even ready to die

I go to so much trouble
just to suffer and struggle
Work work work
just to hurt hurt hurt
I've been walking on a wire
getting higher and higher
Man I just looked down
down down down

(repeat chorus)

I've been wrapped so tight
I can't sleep at night
Listen to the clock
Tick tick tock
Well my dreams won't come
I said my dreams won't come
I've gotta change my ways
Hey hey hey
