Up before the sunlight
Tired from a long night
In the shadow of the limelight
The same fight
Chasing down the high life
Riding down the a-line
Putting in the overtime
To make a dime
All of the years watch them all fly by
All of the tears got nowhere left to hide
And truth be told, no one knows, no one knows
It's been a long, been a long time coming
I'm moving on, getting tired of running
Curtains close, no one knows, no one knows
I'm on the edge giving all that I got
Who I am is living who I'm not
Pinching pennies it don’t make no sense (cents, play on words)
Chasing dollar after dollar but I still feel spent
All the things I’ve been through
I lie awake and review
The scars will never leave me
They remind me
All of the years watch them all fly by
All of the tears got nowhere left to hide
And truth be told, no one knows, no one knows
It's been a long, been a long time coming
I'm moving on, getting tired of running
Curtains close, no one knows, no one knows
I'm on the edge giving all that I got
Who I am is living who I'm not
Pinching pennies it don’t make no sense (cents, play on words)
Chasing dollar after dollar but I still feel spent
Ah, (dollar after dollar but I still feel spent)
Up before the sunlight, tired from a long night
It's been a long, been a long time coming
I'm moving on, getting tired of running
Curtains close, no one knows, no one knows
I'm on the edge giving all that I got
Who I am is living who I'm not
Pinching pennies it don’t make no sense (cents, play on words)
Chasing dollar after dollar but I still feel spent
