Alarm clock screaming, I'm lying staring at the ceiling
Head is humming like a power transformer spinning
They say: "Study, work, stack your pennies up"
But I don't see the point in this meat grinder stuff
Somebody's table's breaking down with plates
Me — instant noodles and a pile of debts
But I ain't hanging low, I'm just waiting for
My hour to arrive, I'll find it, count the score
I'm so tired, but I'm still here
This city's spinning but I won't give in
I'm so tired, but I'm still here
Every scar's a lesson, every bruise a sin
I'm so tired, but I'm still here
This city's spinning but I won't give in
I'm so tired, but I'm still here
And I'll keep on running 'til the dawn rolls in
You know what's funny? Everyone's on the run
Somewhere, something, same old rat race on repeat
And I'm standing watching how the sky's on fire
Thinking: "Damn, what a beautiful view tonight"
Don't need your rules, don't need your little games
I'm my own director, I'm my own frame
And if I fall down — I'll get back up again
'Cause I ain't ready for the end, not yet, my friend
I'm so tired, but I'm still here
This city's spinning but I won't give in
I'm so tired, but I'm still here
Every scar's a lesson, every bruise a sin
I'm so tired, but I'm still here
This city's spinning but I won't give in
I'm so tired, but I'm still here
And I'll keep on running 'til the dawn rolls in
