[00:19.79]Sitting in the lazy chair, the channels look the same,
[00:23.75]I realize that the roof is stable and start to feel ashamed.
[00:28.54]It's cold outside, but don't ask me, the weather's fine in here,
[00:34.51]Ask the man around the corner who lives his life in fear.
[00:38.94]Two hundred pennies, forty ounces later he's okay,
[00:44.06]He doesn't have the pressure to think about the next day,
[00:48.85]But I bet it's something cold and hard and grey.
[00:54.55]Complaining and whining all the time, I never seem to quit,
[00:58.40]Always lying to myself, a shoe that always fits.
[01:03.46]Never is a long time, and it feels like I'm a clock,
[01:08.40]Ticking like a time bomb, someday soon his life will stop.
[01:13.00]I listen to the radio, but nothing good is on,
[01:18.16]My friends are calling up but I'm pretending that I'm gone.
[01:23.38]We're all pieces in a chess game, he's a pawn.
[01:27.57]I wonder how it turned out like this, no one seems to care,
[01:52.52]The scale has tipped me fortunate, is this what we call fair?
[01:57.22]But I've never had the mind to know it,
[02:00.67]I've never had the guts to show it,
[02:02.76]All I know is his dream is my nightmare.
