My nerves are shot, the pressure's on
It's too much, I can't respond
The sky is falling, the ground bursts
My head is pounding, my life is cursed
We're burning out, no end in sight
The treadmill's infinite
That's how it seems each waking moment
No place for me to go
Now it's like walking on hot coals
I'm lost in space
I feel demand outstrip my pace
I see the stares of faces blank
No more living for the chase
My knees are week, the days drag on
Same old thing, here and gone
More anger floods my words and thoughts
The wrong way to react yet nothing changes
They still turn their back
No place for me to go
Now it's like walking on hot coals
I'm lost in space
I feel demand outstrip my pace
I see the stares of faces blank
No more living for the chase
Absent is empathy
When there's nothing to believe
It's all for one and none for all
Doing battle in the urban sprawl
My hands shake, my vision is blurred
Don't ask again, I can't be sure
Rain is slamming hard against my face
It's pouring down in sheets
My energy's gone, spent in defeat
No place for me to go
Now it's like walking on hot coals
I'm lost in space
I feel demand outstrip my pace
I see the stares of faces blank
No more living for the chase
