Wakey-wakey, rise and shine
Body draining time
Don't forget to breathe in and out, kick out the doubt
Five hours' sleep and you'll be doing it again
Wakey-wakey, rise and shine
My brain is fried
Caffeine feeds me, no time for hate as I have a date
With this job, no time to recuperate

Only so many fingers and so many toes
The clock's ticking by, the day's coming to a close
With so much to lose and nothing to gain
How did I get this way?
We live our lives, so don't apologize
We'll let our brains decay
Followed the rules, you bought all the tools
No room for a mistake

This can't be happening to me
What's meant to be is meant to be
How long you last, you'll see
What a poorly-designed routine
Different routes and properties
And I keep asking myself
What's the point in all this fucking bullshit, bullshit?

Wakey-wakey, rise and shine
Energy has died
Exhaustion has disabled me, out of my tree
This is your life, where is your fight?
Wakey-wakey, rise and shine
My god, I've tried
This can't go on, hours too long, commitments are wrong
Failed the test, but I did my best

Gripping the wheel, I'm losing the feel
The thirst for life has gone
Money's all spent, not enough for the rent
As the cost of work is too much
I can't keep going, I'm physically choking
This debt will never drop
Why does it keep blowing back up at me?
I want my life to stop

This can't be happening to me
What's meant to be is meant to be
How long you last, we'll see
What a poorly-designed routine
So many routes and properties
And I keep asking myself
What's the point in all this fucking bullshit, bullshit?

When the blade reaches my bones
That's when I feel most at home
When the blade reaches my bones
That's when I feel most at
