"The Squeeze"

OH!

Sometimes it feels like the juice is
Just one hell of a squeeze
I'm ringing out my hands
Drinking in my happiness

I love this shit and I hate this shit
I need it just to survive
I've served my time, I've earned my key
And now I'm taking what's mine

That's all we are can't stop me

So what is it that you're fighting for
Is it something that's worth dying for?
Look me in the eyes, don't tell me!
Is it in your heart, what you're striving for?
A painful lesson learned is worth so much more (so much more)
Can you open up your eyes and see?

All lives we ask ourselves
Is this really what's meant for us?
Take a close hard look at yourself
It takes heart to face your reality

I can't, I cannot give two shits
About your self doubt
When it's time to rise, I won't sell myself
I won't sell myself out, I won't sell myself out

So what is it that you're fighting for
Is it something that's worth dying for?
Look me in the eyes, don't tell me!
Is it in your heart, what you're striving for?
A painful lesson learned is worth so much more (so much more)
Can you open up your eyes and see?

Every tale falls away
Like pages in the good book, like an autumn leaves decay
Every tale falls away
Like sand in an hourglass, the end of a perfect day

Every tale falls away
Like pages in the good book like an autumn leaves decay,
Every tale falls away
Like sand in an hourglass

So what is it that you're fighting for
Is it something that's worth dying for?
Look me in the eyes, don't tell me!
Is it in your heart, what you're striving for?
A painful lesson learned is worth so much more
Can you open up your eyes and see?
