Six Feet - Lyrics by Strung Out


Lyrics
A family man in the midst ofa total breakdownseeks refuge inebriated state
As he thinks to himself how didlife pass me by - somewhere down
The line I forgot how to livenow every day is just another chore,
Anotherday, another week, another year.
The world slowly turns, but thisrut never ends - one blink of aneye then it's gone.
So he puts his faith in the Almighty
Lord up above, he's told for all goodmen Heaven awaits"
Well I can't waitany longer when'sit my turn to see the light that'llcome and take my troubles away?"
Now he spends his days preachingwhat he does not believe, to a worldthat's forgotten how to liveand he can't understand the empty
Feelin' inside that seems to growevery hour, every day."
What's it take to be a man, wheneverything I'm taught I can't believe
And everything is thrown right in myface?I wake up everyday, I live here among
The dead and I am one of them. Isthis how it's gotta be? For you and me
Open your eyes take a look around think nice thoughts thenit's off to work I go!"
Now it's back to the hustle and it'sback to the beat
It's back to another forty hourweek."
Soon that weekend will come
I'll get to have a little fun thenit's back to my forty hour grave"
