Told to play the game, so they know my name Can't catch a break these days, and it hurts just a little I can't win them all, keep my battle small Leave my fate just to fall, and it hurts just a little So if you feel the same way I do I think I got just the song for you For everybody like me, making ends meet For everybody who runs their life in overdrive Lose their sleep and chase their time Well trust me, I know that it hurts just a little For everybody like me, everybody like, everybody like me Roll out of bed each day, just trying to break these chains Oh man, it hurts to say Are you broke? Running late? I'm laughing through the misery, smiling so uncomfortably So if you feel the same way I do For everybody like me, making ends meet For everybody who runs their life in overdrive Lose their sleep and chase their time Well trust me, I know that it hurts just a little For everybody like me, everybody like, everybody like me I wonder what it would be like to have some money What would it feel like to be on time Or how I'd love to be somebody But somebody to love would be just fine Yeah, what would it be like to have some money What would it feel like to skip the line Or how I'd love to be somebody Somebody to love would be just fine So in the meantime For everybody like me, making ends meet For everybody who runs their life in overdrive Lose their sleep and chase their time Well trust me, I know that it hurts just a little For everybody like me, everybody like, everybody like me I wonder what it would be like to have some money What would it feel like to be on time Or how I'd love to be somebody But somebody to love would be just fine Well trust me, I know that it hurts just a little For everybody like me, everybody like, everybody like me
