Never seem to get ahead, it's getting' easier to see Just tryin' to make a livin' and it's killin' me, yea Times are gettin' tough seems I never make enough Doing what I can to stay alive And I'd like to take a day off but I can't afford a layoff I gotta keep this damn job to survive Hey, can't make ends meet I can't even save a dime Feels like I spend my life workin' overtime Tryin' to make a livin', gotta pay the rent Just tryin' to make a livin', wonder where my money went Never seem to get ahead, it's getting' easier to see Just tryin' to make a livin' and it's killin' me, yea Killin' me, well yea Ooh hoo yea yea Tryin' to make a livin', gotta pay the rent Just tryin' to make a livin', wonder where my money went Never seem to get ahead, it's gettin' easier to see Just tryin' to make a livin' Tryin' to make a livin' Tryin' to make a livin' and it's killin' me, yea Killin' me

飲み込んだ いつも 鋭い声を ぎゅっと 吐き出す My God it's 5am 鏡に問うよ what I am 流し委ねた未来 misfortune 朝がくれば変われるように また 気付けば神頼みの途中 I realise When I realise ほら 泣けない日も笑えない日も 負けない日を重ねながら ここにいる 私はここにいる いつか 嵐の奥 虹がかかる 泥だらけの世界の一番真ん中で笑う Yeah I'm living my life I'm living my life 飛び込んだ きっと 未来はミラーボールだった 誰かの明日を照らして 自分は迷子のままで 胸が詰まる空っぽの cartoons もう刺さらないよあなたの new tunes 踏み込む足がわかればもうすぐ I realise Now I realise ほら 泣けない日も笑えない日も 負けない日を重ねながら ここにいる 私はここにいる 誰かのためじゃないあなたの今を The world looks so beautiful now まだ 明けないでと願った夜も 救えないような日々も超えて ここにいる 私はここにいる いつか 鏡の中 虹がかかる 泥だらけの世界の一番真ん中で笑う Yeah I'm living my life I'm living my life 誰かのためじゃないあなたの今を The world looks so beautiful now

We were wild, we were reckless We were crazy, we were careless Every weekend, every paycheck We were good at wasting time Chasing down a feeling Always hanging from the ceiling We were fighting for our freedom every Friday night We would think too little, we would drink too much Back when we were renegades on the run We wanted lightning in a bottle Living life full throttle Back when we had nothing But we wanted it all Nights would last forever Always thought we'd be together You and me Back when we, we were wannabes We were wannabes Yeah, we, we were wannabes We were ruling heartbreakers We were good time chasers Proud to be called trouble-makers Always dodging blue lights We were rough, we were rebels Always runnin' with the Devil Take it to another level Had to chase that high We would think too little, we would drink too much Back when we were renegades on the run We wanted lightning in a bottle Living life full throttle Back when we had nothing But we wanted it all Nights would last forever Always thought we'd be together You and me Back when we, we were wannabes We were wannabes Yeah, we, we were wannabes Yeah, yeah Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh We wanted lightning in a bottle Living life full throttle Back when we had nothing But we wanted it all Nights would last forever Always thought we'd be together You and me Back when we, we were wannabes We were wannabes Yeah, we, we were wannabes We, we were wannabes Yeah, we, we were wannabes We, we were wannabes Yeah, we, we were wannabes We, we were wannabes Yeah, we, we were wannabes

Sometimes the city burns a little too bright You can't tell if it's day or if it's night I'm going off the grid in my GMC No GPS is gonna find me This road I'm on is rolling out of sight I'm going nowhere Nowhere is where I wanna be Sittin' in an old chair With a guitar on my knee Rain on a tinroof singin' to a six string melody I'm going nowhere Nowhere is where I wanna be When that black top finally turns to clay That's when I feel a smile back on my face I'm going back to the well that feeds my soul With a bucket of beer and a fishing pole I'm goin', goin' gone without a trace I'm going nowhere Nowhere is where I wanna be Sittin' in an old chair With a guitar on my knee Rain on a tinroof singin' to a six string melody I'm going nowhere Nowhere is where I wanna be Ooh, ooh Sometimes the city burns a little too bright You can't tell if it's day or if it's night I'm going nowhere Nowhere is where I wanna be Sittin' in an old chair With a guitar on my knee Rain on a tinroof singin' to a six string melody I'm going nowhere Nowhere is where I wanna be I'm going nowhere Nowhere is where I wanna be
