The squeeze

Sometimes it feels like the juice is just one, hell of a squeeze.
I´m wringing it out my hands, drinking in my agony.
I love this shit and I hate this shit, I need it just to survive.
I´ve served my time, I´ve earned my keep, and now I´m taking what´s mine
(And only I can stop me)
[Chorus:]
So what is it that you were fighting for?
Is it something that´s worth dying for?
Look me in the eyes, don´t tell me.
Is it in your heart, what your striving for?
A painful lesson learned is worth so much more (so much more).
Can you open up your eyes and see?
All of our lives we ask ourselves is this really what´s meant for us,
take a cold hard look at youself, it takes heart to face your reality.
I can, I cannot give two shits about your self doubt, when it´s time to rise
I won´t sell myself out (I won´t sell myself out).
[Chorus]
And doubt falls away, like pages in a good book like an autumn leaf´s decay.
And doubt falls away, like sand in an hourglass the end of a perfect day.
And doubt falls away, like pages in a good book like an autumn leaf´s decay.
And doubt falls away, like sand in an hourglass
[Solo]
