I'm Burning Out

Woke up
Oh shit, I'm late
Another day for my boss to berate
But I'm working to the bone
And I'm burning out

Working this job that I hate
Fooling myself to think that things are great
But, I'm working 'till late tonight
And I'm burning out

When I finally have a bit of time
I wanna use it, because it's all mine
But the obligations never end
And I'm burning out

Is this what it's all gonna be like
For the rest of our fuckin' lives
I don't know
And no one knows what to say
They say is this what shit is gonna be like
For the rest of our fuckin' lives
I don't know
Can someone show us the way

They say
Gotta keep the cycle alive
The capitalist machine really must survive
At least
So I can pay to eat

And you see the pain in the face of everyone you meet
And some you can tell that are close to defeat
Well, it's so sad
But what can we do

'Cuz when we finally have a bit of time
We wanna use it, to make it all feel fine
But, we're working for dimes
And we're burning out

Is this what it's all gonna be like
For the rest of our fuckin' lives
Well, I don't know
And no one knows what to say
They say is this what shit is gonna be like
For the rest of our fuckin' lives
I don't know
And no one knows what to say

Is this what life is gonna be like
A cycle of good, and then a lot of strife
I hope not
Because we're burnt out
