and I just can't get this off my mind
|
my voice it yells inside
|
It tells me all the time
|
that I could leave right now
|
oh, it dares me up to see this place
|
green and a machine washed gray
|
|
but all we know is this...
|
|
I been trying for the past 4 years
|
broken a lie to get this here
|
it's not the heart that makes the man,
|
it's the money in his hand
|
it's been a struggle for the past few nights
|
I had to quit to realize,
|
that I can't waste my time on it
|
in case this is all I get
|
|
one year, one month, and seven days
|
to lose the love it takes
|
and grow plastic from my hands
|
so I can leave right now
|
oh, it cheers me up to see this place
|
green and a machine washed gray
|
|
with all the shine and ritz...
|
|
I been trying for the past 4 years
|
broken a lie to get this here
|
it's not the heart that makes the man,
|
it's the money in his hand
|
it's been a struggle for the past few nights
|
I had to quit to realize,
|
that I can't waste my time on it

I get...
