?????????????????????????????????????
Right  from my eyes, runs a tear on my cheek.
Don’t  want to be heard, so I can’t get the blame.
Can’t  hear no words, I would say its gonna rain.
Get  the queue for the bus, and then I join the line.
Same  faces for the last 10 years of my life.
See  I’m bored of my friends, I couldn’t tell you their names.
Shattered  glass on the floor, kids are running again.
One  hour passes till I’m back on my feet,
A  stones throw and I’ll be walking till I’m off of the street.
Hang  my coat up to dry, settle down with the herd.
Some  I really don’t mind, some just get on my nerves.
Turn  my back to the clock because it slows the time,
Take  out a cigarette and hear the match strike.
Turn  the radio on to drown the sound of the rain.
Same  bands, same songs play again and again.
And  I don’t see how its ever  gonna change
From  my days at work I move away in a haste.
Times  never slower then when she’s running away.
Pass  a girl from my school but conversations brief,
Gotta  catch that train get myself some relief.
I  meet up with friends and then I’m off at six.
Up  and in at five I walk around for a bit.
Grab  up all of my change and move an empty glass
Herds  through that door, glad I won’t be the last.
See  I just act quiet so you’ll think I’m thick
Said  the same last night and we were getting on it.
Find  a closing door and stumble out in the rain,
I  look up to the sky and watch it start to sleep.
And  I don’t see how its ever  gonna change
 Tell  me I’m alright, say what you like from miles away.
 And expect  nothing changes except  for the name  of the day.
And  I don’t see how its ever  gonna change
 And I don’t see how its ever gonna change
 And I don’t see how its ever gonna change
 And I don’t see how its ever gonna change
Turn  back up my road and make my way up the street.
Lines  scream in my ear as I walk this beat.
Fall  into my door, I fumble round for my key.
Creap  back into bed and then I pull up my sheet.
High  over my head and uncover my feet.
Till  the world goes dark and I’m miles away.
Jump  to the alarm to start another day.
