[A] [D] I never have the time to do the nothing that I [G] want to do
[D] I'm always rushing around being what other people [A] want me to be
[D] Yeah, the fabric of the soul is frayed and falling apart [G] as the sea
[D] I'm tied up and tied down by the strings of other [A] people's dreams
[G] Starting to see that [A] that isn't me
And my freedom [Bm] isn't free
[G] For all I really [A] want is room to breathe
[D] Someday I'll [G] learn to say no
Or [D] find a way to [A] lighten my load

Give us your time and give us your money
Just lay down your body, there's no sense in running
Now cut off your hair and put on a tie
Just do what you're told without wondering why
And let's go, who needs it?
No matter the season
Sit down and confront, cause we don't want no flaming
We'll say that you are the side but you're not
You're going, you're going, you never will stop
