BACK INTO THE FRAY

Listen Here

Lyrics____________________________

Sometimes wonder why I simmer and seethe
Gasping for air while others breathe
Maybe I'm just a fish out of water
Maybe just another lamb lining up for the slaughter
I remember being handed a prescription to follow
But the pill was too bitter, I could not swallow

Nights and days, I watch them spin away
Then get back into the fray

This is a business world, there's alot to be done
You gotta get out there, show yourself, look like your having fun
I was never one to get into the game
I was always just outside watching the others play
There's a school of thought says you should earn and spend
It's just not one I care to attend

Nights and days, I watch them spin away
Then get back into the fray

Here's a chord for all the feelings words are helpless to describe
A chord for all the feelings locked inside my heart so tight

Tax me, ticket me, turn off my lights
Charge me eighteen dollars an oversight
I try to talk to the stone drone behind the counter
But she don't care, her worth's being measured by the hour
Systems designed to keep me down
Guess they think I'm gonna come around

Nights and days, I watch them spin away
Then get back into the fray
