I go to work in the morning And I watch tv at night Two days a week I might drink a beer To forget about the things in life That hold me back and that hold me down And I hold on to my dreams I'm not the man that I thought I'd be And I kinda doubt I'll ever be It's such a long road through this world It's such a long road through this world We sell our lives away, These people of our kind I trade my life 8 hours a day For another man can make a dime It's such a long road through this world It's such a long road through this world I scream out loud but can't be heard It's such a long road through this world I'm lying here tonight And I'm not sure where I'd be If I lost my job or I lost my will And I dont know what the world might bring One thing I know for sure Is there's gotta be a better way To make it through and to make it last And Look forward to a brighter day It's such a long road through this world It's such a long road through this world I scream out loud but can't be heard It's such a long road through this world
