"No Reward" lyrics

"No Reward"

Why am I behind this rock?
Why am I pushing so hard?
No one tells me anything
I don't get no reward
No one tells me anything
I don't get no reward

Betraying you plays so strange
Do you see this, death, and life is rearranged?
These two are the big ones
All the rest is just small change
These two are the big ones
All the rest is just small change

Hope, so heavy, sank without a sound
Faith had followed 'fore the sun was down
Yes, I must confess
It's just a bad day all around
Yes, I must confess
It's just a bad day all around

Why am I behind this rock?
Why am I pushing so hard?
No one tells me anything
I don't get no reward
No one tells me anything
I don't get no reward
