lyrics

Too Much To Take

The sun streams through your window
Peers into a headache
Your eyes are blinking open
But they’re not seeing straight
It’s 9:37 and you’re barely awake
It’s another day calling into work
‘Cause you’re running late

It’s too much to take
It’s too much to believe in at once
It’s too much to take
But I know we’re gunna make it ok

Another call, a text message
From the man from last night
You’d rather just be by yourself
But it’s too hard to fight
He gives you what you ask for
Who cares if it’s right?
Looks like you’re losing friends faster than you’re losing sight

The boss is on your ass again
You’ve barely time to see your children
He doesn’t understand
The powder is your only friend

It’s too much to take
It’s too much to believe in at once
It’s too much to take
But I know we’re gunna set the record straight

The sun comes through your window
It’s a lovely day
Sleeping in your own bed
After 3 weeks away
6:35 and you’re already awake
The coffee's brewed, the paper's read
And you’re on your way

They were steps you had to take
It was finally time to believe in yourself
There was way too much at stake
But I knew that you could make it someday
Yes, I knew that you could make it ok
