Tension

I wake up every morning bright and early Roll out of bed but I'm never quite alone Tension is pulling me in all directions And all these problems use me as their own Sometimes the pressure will just drive you crazy At any time I could explode I need some piece of mind, it's got me tired Don't wanna lose it, but I'm turning down that road I need a moment 'cause I've spread myself too thin We all need a moment in our lives Work's hard, the day's too long And that's just where it begins Tension has had us all this time I sit in traffic every single morning Just as I arrive, I'm slaving to the grind Making the money so I feed my family But I can't raise them, 'cause I ain't got the time I got no free days on my busy schedule I turn the page and it's the same Don't like my situation, you don't either Don't wanna look back scared, I'm working life away I need a moment 'cause I've spread myself too thin We all need a moment in our lives Work's hard, the day's too long And that's just where it begins Tension has had us all this time But every now and then I drive alone An open road Hot summer days A gentle breeze that feels alright Home alone And I can't feel no pain Only strength Enjoy the sights I feel alive Relaxing here just feels alright Far from home I need a moment 'cause I've spread myself too thin We all need a moment in our lives Work's hard, the day's too long And that's just where it begins Tension has had us all this time
