She has the world on a string
But that don't mean a thing
When your life is called a disaster
She's trying so hard
But she just lost her job
And the booze becomes her master
She worked so hard to fit in
The taste of sin on her skin
Now she's run down and she's wasted
We didn't work this hard
To be this poor
Another wasted night
Here on the floor
We can't see the sunrise
Up in the sky
We didn't come so far
To pay bills and die
He tried to stay in the black
No defense just attack
And he ended down on the ground
His fists to the wall
He stumbles and crawls
And screams without any sound
His busted hands on his face
He can't hide his disgrace
But he swears that
He's doing just fine
We didn't work this hard
To be this poor
Another wasted night
Here on the floor
We can't see the sunrise
Up in the sky
We didn't come so far
To pay bills and die
Don't look back
Go, go, go
There's nothing else
Worth waiting for
Don't look back
Go, go, go
There's nothing else
Worth dying for
We didn't work this hard
To be this poor
Another wasted night
Here on the floor
We can't see the sunrise
Up in the sky
We didn't come so far
To pay bills and die
