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,
