Choking from 9 to 5, and to some more than that.
5 to 7 days a week, no time for our families.
Work to pay the bills, no money for our dreams.
Fit the mold or leave this place.
This sorrow has roots built in us
Searching for a space to reconnect,
hoping to reach a haven so we can forget.
The pain that has grown in our minds.
The need to feel the air, and the will to breathe again.
This sorrow has roots deep inside of us
This sorrow has grown in us
And the sorrow has broken us
This sorrow, is our sorrow.
