lay down and die
-------------------------------------------

Woke up this morning, the sun in my eyes Took a ten minute shower and put on my disguise I walk down the stairs and I lock the door Some siding falls down to remind me I’m poor Not impressed and depressed I look up to the sky Just one more reason to lay down and die so i'm riding to work and the rain starts to fall as i step off the bus and i'm late- damn it all i walk into the store, take a deep breath and sigh one of these days i'll just lay down and die I got nothing-not a dime to my name I got nothing-but a whole lot of shame I got nothing-a little bit of dirt I got nothing-cept a whole lotta hurt the hours go by, my mind starts to wander have we ruined our lives? i stop and i ponder i say it's not so, but why should i lie i'll just face the facts and lay down and die I come home from work ain't no food on the table Ain't no honey I’m home ain't no stove ain't no cable just a head full of dreams and this roomful of lies looks like its 'bout time to just lay down and die I got nothing-not a dime to my name I got nothing-just a whole lotta shame I got nothing-a little bit of dirt I got nothing-cept awhole lotta hurt I got a husband that hates me and a pocket full of trash I gotta pay rent but I don’t have the cash we sit down to talk, he yells and i cry all i wanna do is just lay down and die I got nothing-not a dime to my name I got nothing-but a whole lot of shame I got nothing-a little bit of dirt I got nothing-cept a whole lotta hurt So now its time to go to bed And I’m sleeping on the floor This endless aggression I can’t take it anymore This shit has to stop Why can’t you just try or it's time to give up come lay down and die
