Slave to the Job

Castles in the sky make me cry,
Make me laugh out loud now,
Watching the seagulls fly in the sky,
Makes me feel like dying,
I work so hard now,
For what I need,
Paying for the roof over my head,
And the air I’m breathing,
Slave to the job,
I’m just a prisoner of life,
Slave to the job,
I’m just a number, not a free man anymore,
Slave to the job,
I’m just a prisoner of life,
Slave to the job,
And I work out my lonely life,
Working on the 9 till 5,
Just to earn some bread now,
Working all the hours God gave,
Just don’t know where I’m heading,
I give so much,
I’m so tired of giving,
Words become my life now,
If you call that living,
Slave to the job,
I’m just a prisoner of life,
Slave to the job,
I’m just a number, not a free man anymore,
Slave to the job,
I’m just a prisoner of life,
Slave to the job,
And I work out my lonely life,
I’d just wake up and leave this place,
If I could now,
I can’t break free, there’s no place else,
So I’ll just stay here,
Trapped in a prison,
Of my own creation,
Running round in circles,
In my desperation,
Slave to the job,
I’m just a prisoner of life,
Slave to the job,
I’m just a number, not a free man anymore,
Slave to the job,
I’m just a prisoner of life,
Slave to the job,
And I work out my lonely life,
Slave to the job,
I’ve lost my lust for life,
Slave to the job,
I’m working on overdrive,

Blue Skies, Dark Clouds

Blue skies passing overhead,
In the morning you’ll wake up dead,
Blue skies passing overhead,
In the morning you’ll wake up dead,
Dark clouds passing overhead,
Makes angels cry out,
For the long lost dead now,
Feels like I’m just a fallen soul,
With a dark black hole,
Where my heart used to be,
Heaven doesn’t want to keep me inside,
Hell threw me out,
A long, long time ago,
I just wander the earth like Cain,
Now I’m just another,
Another tortured soul,
It seems like yesterday,
I was fine,
Sunshine on my mind,
It seems like yesterday,
Blue skies were overhead,
Not further,
It seems like yesterday,
Nothing could be,
Better than me,
It’s seems like yesterday,
I was fine,
Then I lost my mind,
Blot out the stars cause I’m passing by,
Blot out the Sun,
Because it burns my eyes now,
I’m just a shade of what I was,
Now I curse the gods,
And think of what could be,
Heaven doesn’t want to keep me inside,
Hell threw me out,
A long, long time ago,
I just wander the earth like Cain,
Now I’m just another,
Another tortured soul,
It seems like yesterday,
I was fine,
Sunshine on my mind,
It seems like yesterday,
Blue skies were overhead,
Not further,
It seems like yesterday,
Nothing could be,
Better than me,
It’s seems like yesterday,
I was fine,
Then I lost my mind,
Dark clouds passing overhead,
Makes angels cry out,
For the long lost dead now,
Feels like I’m just a fallen soul,
With a dark black hole,
Where my heart used to be,
Heaven doesn’t want to keep me inside,
Hell threw me out,
A long, long time ago,
I just wander the earth like Cain,
Now I’m just another,
Another tortured soul,
It seems like yesterday,
I was fine,
Sunshine on my mind,
It seems like yesterday,
Blue skies were overhead,
Not further,
It seems like yesterday,
Nothing could be,
Better than me,
It’s seems like yesterday,
I was fine,
Then I lost my mind,
Blue skies passing overhead,
In the morning you’ll wake up dead,
Blue skies passing overhead,
In the morning you’ll wake up dead,

Suitably Stoned

I went to sleep last night,
Watching all the television news,
I dreamt I died again,
All a sudden I felt the whole world move,
And I was wandering,
Down corridors of hell,
Felt a hand land on my shoulder,
And I heard a dark voice calling me by name,
You’ve been alone so long,
You’re always by yourself,
It’s just the voices in your head,
When you’re so deep inside your own mind,
And you’re gone,
Yeah you’re suitably stoned,
You’ve done it to yourself again,
You’re suitably stoned,
Yeah you’re suitably,
Suitably stoned,
,
I looked around the room,
Gazing at the pictures on the wall,
I heard the music play,
Dancers were but shadows in the pall,
The clocks struck midnight,
The masks flew off,
Dead eyes looked at me,
Then I heard that voice again, again it called me,
You’ve been alone so long,
You’re always by yourself,
It’s just the voices in your head,
When you’re so deep inside your own mind,
And you’re gone,
Yeah you’re suitably stoned,
You’ve done it to yourself again,
You’re suitably stoned,
Yeah you’re suitably,
Suitably stoned,
I walked across the chamber,
Through the curtain round about the bed,
Looked at the body lying there,
I was me still and cold and dead,
Then I heard that voice again,
It was no other than my own,
And I spoke again, said listen son,
You’ve always been alone
You’ve been alone so long,
You’re always by yourself,
It’s just the voices in your head,
When you’re so deep inside your own mind,
And you’re gone,
Yeah you’re suitably stoned,
You’ve done it to yourself again,
You’re suitably stoned,
Yeah you’re suitably,
Suitably stoned,
