Hey, lay low You know That everybody has to care You see That we All feel the same way you do
Lie to me 'cause honestly I don't believe that you believe The lines you try to feed to me like "Keep your head down, happy isn't free"
'Cause all the boys on the morning train can see And all the girls with the empty eyes agree All this working It's not working They graduated with a Big Ten college degree They're frustrated 'cause it's not how they thought it would be Sleeping, working It's not working for me
So I stay in my seat Try to catch eyes with those around me But they all stare vacantly on forward Toward a future I can't see
'Cause all the boys on the morning train can see And all the girls with the empty eyes agree All this working It's not working They graduated with a Big Ten college degree They're frustrated 'cause it's not how they thought it would be Sleeping, working It's not working for me
How can I let this go? Know only what I need to know? Can I be only what they tell me I should show? Oh no
'Cause all the boys on the morning train can see And all the girls with the empty eyes agree All this working It's not working They graduated with a Big Ten college degree They're frustrated 'cause it's not how they thought it would be Sleeping, working It's not working for me
