I'm Burning Out Lyrics

Woke up

Oh shit, I'm late

Another day for my boss to berate

But I'm working to the bone

And I'm burning out

Working this job that I hate

Fooling myself to think that things are great

But, I'm working 'till late tonight

And I'm burning out

When I finally have a bit of time

I wanna use it, because it's all mine

But the obligations never end

And I'm burning out

Is this what it's all gonna be like

For the rest of our fuckin' lives

I don't know

And no one knows what to say

They say is this what shit is gonna be like

For the rest of our fuckin' lives

I don't know

Can someone show us the way

They say

Gotta keep the cycle alive

The capitalist machine really must survive

At least

So I can pay to eat

And you see the pain in the face of everyone you meet

And some you can tell that are close to defeat

Well, it's so sad

But what can we do

'Cuz when we finally have a bit of time

We wanna use it, to make it all feel fine

But, we're working for dimes

And we're burning out

Is this what it's all gonna be like

For the rest of our fuckin' lives

Well, I don't know

And no one knows what to say

They say is this what shit is gonna be like

For the rest of our fuckin' lives

I don't know

And no one knows what to say

Is this what life is gonna be like

A cycle of good, and then a lot of strife

I hope not

Because we're burnt out
