The spinning wheel turns round again
Morning to night it turns over again
Let go of this trap, break through these chains
Repetition is driving me insane
Every day’s the same
something’s got to reignite the flame
Every day gets worse
“Normal” expectations have become a curse
Worked to death, 9 to 5 you submit
I’ve got fucking nothing to show for it
Souls snuffed out by the men upstairs
Taking a life that’s not rightfully theirs
