Lyrics

Verse 1 It’s a dull grey hazy lazy kinda day. Where the world’s in shades of black and gray. And you want to jump in your car and drive far away But there’s that dead end job and your bills to pay. Stay, stay, stay. You pray. Stay, stay, stay, stay, stay. Verse 2 And you want to curl back up and lie in bed. All covered in blankets to your head. Wishing to every Saint and God you were dead But you shuffle off like a zombie to work instead. Bread, bread, bread, To be fed. Bread, bread, bread, To be fed. Chorus
 It’s a small and mean existence You go on living. With cheap and safe subsistence You avoid the God-given. At least playing small You still have your walls No one sees if you fall No one cares at all. No.... Verse 3 Do you remember a time when you knew so much more When each day didn't seem like such a chore? Can you remember childish dreams and fantasies galore Waiting just outside your back door. So sure, sure, sure Of what life had in store. You were so sure, sure, sure, sure, sure. Bridge So domesticated So tame, calm, and polite. So inebriated Can’t even see your plight So asphyxiated This bushel’s killed your light. So inoculated They’ve cured you of your fight. Chorus It’s a small and mean existence You go on living. With cheap and safe subsistence You avoid the God-given. At least playing small You still have your walls No one sees if you fall No one cares at all. No.... Outro
 Dare to be rasher I dare to be brasher I dare to be true I dare you to be you
