Circumstance Lyrics


Are you happy with your life?
You make just enough to scrape by
You pay the rent, your check is spentWhere did last weekend go?
You wasted all your flow
And you don't remember where it went on nowDrinking, smoking cigarettes
Working but you're still in debt
Thinking losing self-esteem
How can this be, happening?You might have the temporary superficial happiness
That you buy with money you don't have
Do you tell yourself, it's just the first time
Or maybe the last time which is your circumstanceDrinking, smoking cigarettes
Working but you're still in debt
Thinking losing self-esteem
How can this be, happening?Life is not a job or a career
Living is not smoking and drinking beer
A gift to receive and not to take
The free thinking choice is yours, is yours to makeDrinking, smoking cigarettes
Working but you're still in debt

Thinking losing self-esteem
How can this be?

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
