The Scurbats - The Road Lyrics

The day that I went down on the life road
And there I found all the people that I owed
They just stood there with a smile that I hate
And by that time I had nothing to give
I said that I'd do anything I could
And they said that they were being misunderstood
Then they said I was getting a job
They wanted me to sign and own my soul
I'm feeling the chains on my hands
And tighten and I could understand
That I became a slave
And I was doing the things I hate
The ceiling was coming down
And I can't tell what I came for
That day that I went down on the life road
And there I found all the people that I owed
They just stood there and they were more than before
And by that time I couldn't take it anymore
I said that I did anything I could
That they enslaved me only for their good
They got so close and they laughed at my face
I screamed out loud and decided to escape
I'm feeling the chains falling off my hands
I'm breathing and now I understand
That I became a slave
And I was doing the things I hate
The ceiling is cracking up
And now I can tell what I came for
I wanted to escape
The scene was taking shape
They wanted me to take
Another day off
They wanted to survive
They wanted me alive
My mind on overdrive
What I was paid for?
I've never tried to think
I never saw them blink
Another missing link
Another backdoor
Anything that I could
They laugh at my face
I screamed out loud and decided to escape
And I'm feeling the chains falling off my hands
I'm breathing and now I understand
That I became a slave
And I was doing the things I hate
The ceiling is cracking up
And now I can tell what I came for
