Lyrics
[Verse]
Day in
Day out
Chasing after dreams
Burning the candle at both ends
It seems
Sweating blood
Giving all I've got
But the more I work
The more I lose a lot
[Verse 2]
Punching the clock
Grinding every day
Hoping success is not too far away
But the money I make ain't enough to feel alive
I'm just spinning my wheels
Barely surviving
[Chorus]
Diminishing returns
I've come to see
Working my whole life
But what's it doing for me?
Gotta break free
Find a different path
Before I fade away like a forgotten photograph
like an old photograph
[Verse 3]
my old man,
stubborn and jaded,
Worked his whole life,
his dreams long faded
He faded away,
worked to the bone,
I like to believe,
he wanted more than that
more than that for me
[Chorus]
[Bridge}
[Chorus]
[Outro]
[Verse 4]
Sometimes I wonder
what I’m workin' for
Is there more to this life
than just survive
I’m lookin' for a sign
need to feel alive
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Sometimes I wonder
what I’m workin' for,
Is there more to this life
than just to survive?
I’m lookin' for a sign,
need to feel alive.
kick my phone to the curb
do not disturb
[Chorus]
[Outro]
[Outro]
(I'll see you) See you on the other side dad
(I wont work) Won't work too hard (i promise)
old photograph
[Outro]
(I'll see you) See you on the other side dad
(I wont work too hard) Won't work too hard (i promise)
[Outro]
(I'll see you) See you on the other side dad
Won't work too hard (i promise)
*[Soft outro]*
Like an old photograph
Like an old photograph
(He wanted more than that)
More than that for me
See you on the other side
[Spoken word]
Family first
[Soft outro]
See you on the other side
