I need a drink by Ross Steele Lyrics

I wake each and every single day
To go out and play life's little games
I try so hard to set us free


I just don't know how it should be

I watch the world, time slides away
The years pass by, days stay the same
I try so hard to set it right
But money it's always too tight

A whiskey on the rocks
Its just a cruel twist of fate
Watering down
The mistakes that I make
The rat race, the job
The 9 to 5 it's a trap
I need a drink
To deal with this crap
I wonder what the days will bring
What little trick will come to sting
I try so hard to be steady
But truth is my minds not ready

I wait to see which move is next
Check, or mate in my game of chess
I try so hard to try to block
But life it is just one big shock

A whiskey on the rocks
Its just a cruel twist of fate
Watering down
The mistakes that I make
The rat race, the job
The 9 to 5 it's a trap
I need a drink
To deal with this crap

I try to change the way that I see
The world that's spinning without me
I try to jump on the turning sphere
But fall and shed a final tear

I look up into the clear nights sky
The clouds and birds all flying by
I try to find my part in this
But nothing of me seems to fit
A whiskey on the rocks
Its just a cruel twist of fate
Watering down
The mistakes that I make
The rat race, the job
The 9 to 5 it's a trap
I need a drink
To deal with this crap

The 9-5 it's all just a trap
I really can't deal with all of this crap
