Down and Out

Home and alone and the lights are turned down low
There's a dark cloud hanging over my soul
Change of pace might help my case
But there's nothing that would make me whole

Fridge is empty and the rent is coming due
So why even try
To make a change when everyone's told you that you're already screwed

My boot's don't have any straps
And I don't wanna fight for scraps
There's no dignity in selling your soul if
The people who buy it are the one's that control

I wanna leave it all behind (leave it all behind)
We've only got so much time (so much time)
If that's what life is all about
Then I might as well be down and out

Wanna live but I'm treading all the lines
But I'm staring to find
It's not just me who'd like to see someone tear out all these vines

My boot's don't have any straps
And I don't wanna fight for scraps
There's no dignity in selling your soul if
The people who buy it are the one's that control

I wanna leave it all behind (leave it all behind)
We've only got so much time (so much time)
If that's what life is all about
Then I might as well be down and out
Yeah, then I might as well be down and out
Then I might as well be down and out
