lyrics

I'm tired and so frustrated
I might wanna kick your face in
So just back it up away from me
I didn't wanna leave my bed today
I'd rather be asleep from yesterday
But I gotta be here coz I need the money
But if I didn't have debt I'd probably be fine
But I'm racking up so much red that I'll probably
Die before I can pay it back... oh
I'm falling asleep behind the wheel
It'll be next week 'til I'll afford a meal
And I hear it gets bad before it gets good
You're having a kid, I'm having a smoke
You're livin the dream and I'm society's joke
But I'm trying harder than I think I should
But if I didn't feel down I'd probably be fine
But this red's still kicking around and I'll probably
Die before I can pay it back... oh
I'm working a job 40 hours a week
Just to cover the bills but the outlook is bleak
And I'm so damn tired, I can't even sleep
If I wasn't employed I'd probly use my brain
And maybe have solutions instead of complain
But it's hard to smile when you struggle to breathe
Yeah it's hard to smile when you struggle to breathe
