"Livin' The Dream" lyrics

"Livin' The Dream"

Stale water
Frozen on pause
Numb to all the tug-o-war
Between my teeth and jaw
Flat soda
Losin' all my steam
Man I'm always dreamin'
But I ain't livin' the dream

Rock bottom
Drinkin' up the dregs
Strugglin' to break free
But I'm here stuck inside this egg
Buck naked
Chokin' back a scream
Man I'm always dreamin'
But I ain't livin' the dream

I wanna be born on a Tuesday in May
With leaves in my hair and somebody will say
We've been waiting for you to arrive
And everyone's clapping and chanting my name
While dancing in circles out under the rain
And nobody knows I'm afraid

And tormented
Bitin' on my tongue
Forcing smiles and pleasantries
While tasing my own blood
But don't sweat it
I'll take one for the team
I guess I'll keep on dreamin'
But I ain't livin' the dream

I guess I'll keep on dreamin'
But I ain't livin' the dream
