[Intro] I want to work But it's more complicated The kids, 12 and 5 And there's less money coming in now Everything that's happened since the separation 9 to 5, and 7 to 10 was too much You see I don't have too much And one thing I don't have is my health [Chorus] What little I had [have?], they're taking away They're taking away, what little I [have?] And though I know you're sleeping by my side I'm sick of waking up to find the tears in my eyes [Verse] It's like a form of dreams Or a simple lie Like a loved institution
Being ripped apart before our eyes How can I tell them what I've got When I can't even more from this spot [Chorus] What little I had [have?], they're taking away They're taking away, what little I [have?] And though I know you're sleeping by my side I'm sick of waking up to find the tears in my eyes [Verse] I've nothing left to comfort my own son My daughter's life is over before it has begun And though I know you're sleeping by my side I'm sick of waking up to find the tears in my eyes So much we give is weightless [x5]
