You only live to get by I live to make it worth while So you run and you hide Afraid of stepping outside What they want you to be Another cog in the machine Another dead and buried dream Go I stood and I fought Through the struggle unseen With death by my side I gave everything There was nowhere to hide Through the suffering So I give all my strength and stand On my feet Suffer to succeed I won't die On my knees You only live to get by I live to make it worth while So you run and you hide Afraid of stepping outside What they want you to be Another cog in the machine Another dead and buried dream
