Livin my life one mistake at a time
All keep adding up
Waiting tables for the last six years man my youth is wrappin up
And now I m staring down in a glass
For answers it won t give
Wondering why I live to work, when I know I should be working to live
So I get myself another drink and I try to forget that I drink too much
Cause if this is my lot in life well it ll just have to be enough
Because I m settling for having my bills paid
That cigarette after a long day
And if it gets too hard I ll go and close the bar
Run a tab up that ll be more than I made
Holding on to dreams I m dreamin
They are the only thing that s keeping me moving
And if when I awake I m still a lowly slave
I ll be ok with this life I m living, yeah

Locked up institutionalized I m labelled criminal of the state
An affliction of addiction we all got, one on our plate
Knocked up, car flipped, raided homes
Troubled souls are the only ones I know and I
Wouldn t take it any other way
I m so sorry if you can t relate
Because I m settling for having my bills paid
That cigarette after a long day
And if it gets too hard I ll go and close the bar
Run a tab up that ll be more than I made
Holding on to dreams I m dreamin
They are the only thing that s keeping me moving
And if when I awake I m still a lowly slave
I ll be ok with this life I m living, yeah
