I work too hard
Just to see the money fall away
The phone calls are adding up
The bill collectors call all day after day
I’ve given up on love
If you still believe that’s great for you
But it’s something that was just a wish for me
That’s among many things that haven’t come true
If I have to see one more person smile
From ear to ear
If I have to hear one more person
Say they love living here
I’m going to need a beer
And somewhere…
Where everybody gets crunk
Where the girls shake their junk
They keep placed in their truck
And the people get prettier by the glass
Where time stands still
Where everything around us doesn’t seem real
And none of us can feel…a god damn thing
I can’t wait until it’s pay day
So I can take my check
And basically throw it away
On all those things that deal with
Getting you from place to place
And feeding my hungry face
I’ve giving up on moving out
Getting a life of my own
As long as I keep my weight
As long as I keep my style
The cloths I’ve worn in the past
I’ll be able to wear for a while
If I have to see one more person smile
From ear to ear
If I have to hear one more person
Say they love living here
I’m going to need a beer
And somewhere…
Where everybody gets crunk
Where the girls shake their junk
They keep placed in their truck
And the people get prettier by the glass
Where time stands still
Where everything around us doesn’t seem real
And none of us can feel…a god damn thing
Please tell me what you think

Powerful write. This seemed to have a sadness to it. I think a lot of people can feel this way sometimes. We go through our lives, going to work and school and if we don't have love in our lives we can feel an emptiness sometimes. Thanks for sharing and keep that pen flowing.
