Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh-oh, oh

You can take a day or two, but no more than that
We've got a real strict schedule to meet
Don’t you want to keep the lights on in that house?
Don't you want to keep shoes on your kid's feet?

See, they don’t care if you're sick
They don't care if you're ill
They need you to do things nobody else will
‘Cause if the lights go out
That American dream moves on

Are you tired of living
Two weeks at a time?
Working paycheck to paycheck
Fighting just to stay alive

As it goes on, you're left behind
To wonder what life could have been like
If you were born in a different time
So don't let it die, whoa-oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh

Can we talk about timing?
Or should we talk about love?
Maybe we should just walk away
And pretend it ain't in our blood
‘Cause either you're something or you’re nothing

You’re broken or you're loving
Well, if loving means nothing
Being broken meant something to me
Being broken meant something to me
Whoa-oh

Are you tired of living
Two weeks at a time?
Working paycheck to paycheck
Fighting just to stay alive

As it goes on, you’re left behind
To wonder what life could have been like
If you were born in a different time
So don't let it die

‘Cause either you're something or you're nothing
You’re broken or you're loving
Either you're something or you're nothing
You're broken, you're broken, whoa-oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh

Are you tired of living
Two weeks at a time?
Fucking paycheck to paycheck
Fighting just to stay alive

As it goes on, you're left behind
To wonder what life could have been like
If you were born in a different time
So don't let it die, whoa-oh, whoa-oh
Don't let it die, whoa-oh-oh-oh
