I'm getting a bit upset Because I haven't gotten this life down just yet And it's 5 AM and I haven't slept a wink Every night I stay up late But the songs I write don't turn out great So I break out the rum and pour myself a drink Every day is do or die, but I'm not doin' much Do you think you could point me in the right direction? And I could say that I'm alive, but this ain't livin' Could you come along, and please teach me a lesson? Every day is just the same I watch some films and play some games And listen to Asimov until the dawn And I should be happy with the situation But I can't shake my own frustration With the fact that I might do this 'til all my cash is gone And I'm not getting any younger (Time keeps passing by) Don't want to feel I'm going under Every day is do or die, but I'm not doin' much Do you think you could point me in the right direction? And I could say that I'm alive, but this ain't livin' Could you come along? Could you come along? Could you come along? 'Cause I've got a question And I need answers now Teach me a lesson 'Cause I just don't see how To get these songs off the ground I know I've got a fresh new sound but I I hear it's all in who you know And I know you Every day is do or die, but I'm not doin' much Do you think you could point me in the right direction? Every day is do or die, but I'm not doin' much Every day is do or die, but I'm not doin' much Do you think you could point me in the right direction? And I could say that I'm alive, but this ain't livin' Could you come along? Could you come along? Could you come along? Just come along? Could you come along? 'Cause I've got a question
