"Ordinary Life" lyrics

"Ordinary Life"

It's just another Monday
I'm just another face in a face-less crowd
I'm going down one-way
Caught up in the machine and I'm spit right out
I'm living in a rat race
I'm looking for my soul in the lost-and-found

I'm sitting in the same spot
Counting every tic, toc
Gotta hit the punch clock
When's it gonna stop-stop?
Another day in black and white

One, two, three, four, five
Another week goes by
I'm half alive
I'm getting sick
I'm faking this
I'm over it
Don't wanna wear no suit and tie
Gotta live before I die
So I'm done, done, done
With this ordinary life

What happened to the someday?
What happened to the dreams of the wide-eyed kid?
Don't tell me that it's too late
Don't tell me that I can't 'cause you never did

I'm sitting in the same spot
Counting every tic, toc
Gotta hit the punch clock
When's it going to stop-stop?
Another day in black and white
I gotta quit this ordinary life

One, two, three, four, five
Another week goes by
I'm half alive
I'm getting sick
I'm faking this
I'm over it
Don't wanna wear no suit and tie
Gotta live before I die
So I'm done, done, done
With this ordinary life

I don't wanna wake up
With my best years behind me
I don't wanna wake up
With my best years behind me
I don't wanna wake up
With my best years behind me
I think I better wake up
Before my life's behind me
Oh

One, two, three, four, five
Another week goes by
I'm half alive
I'm getting sick
I'm faking this
I'm over it
Don't wanna wear no suit and tie
Gotta live before I die
So I'm done, done, done
With this ordinary life

One, two, three, four, five
No more ordinary life
One, two, three, four, five
I gotta wake up, wake up
One, two, three, four, five
No more ordinary life
I'm done, done, done with this ordinary
This whole thing is temporary
Done, done, done with this ordinary life
