Another Time
Another morning
My alarms clock's warning
The ceiling's cracked
And the rain is pouring
In my coffee cup
As I get the courage up
I drag a comb across
My thinning hair and
Try to energize my vacant stare
And try to find a way
Just to face another day
the world is hard
And it's cold outside
There's another ticket
On the car I drive
And I'm late again
For my nine-to-five
I sometimes wonder
Why I'm still alive
in another time
Another place
I just might stand up tall
And win the race
With a few more dimes
A younger face
I could just take it all
And enjoy the taste
the hour's late
And it's getting hot
As I sit alone
In the parking lot
I put a bullet
In the gun I bought
And realize that
My chance is shot
