tedious work can leave us feeling it hurts
at first its not an issue but it slowly gets worse
not allowed to converse your mind goes berzerk
then your time on the line is turned to a curse
you thirst for freedom until reality's reversed
then youre submerged in a world of illusion
a man made escapade to blind us from being human
a domain of your choosing to block out your shift
yea day dreaming's the reason that factories exist
but listen to this...
i clocked on at six without a minute to miss
just a name on a list, a machine thats breathing
by quater past id started to drift into dreaming
deceiving myself to get rid of my demons
until the 10 o clock break made my day real and...
i realised the guy next to me wasnt breathing
he was leaning, sorta kneeling covered in blood
when i fell asleep i slipped, hit the switch where i stood
if i could id turn back the clock and press stop
instead he's dead cos REM got me caught in a plot
his life got cropped short, aborted by my hand
standing in the wrong place cut a man from his fam
now on remand, ive no plans... just a 10 span
damned, im alone, i dont condone by behaviour...
but im hoping an appeal with become my saviour
my mind's been a traitor to my person...
causing hurting, but one things for certain...
im learning to only sleep with drawn curtains
no more diversions, what i seek is reversing the past
i know i cant, but when i get out prozac's what ill ask... for
i dont wanna snore anymore, and shut living doors
one's enough, ive already left too many live's sore
