Lyrics

[Verse] Work all your life for something That you'll never be allowed to reach When you find it amounts to nothing A lesson learned, too late to teach If you don't break the endless cycle Then your children will be next 'Cause when the system's rigged against us If you don't fight, it'll cost your neck [Pre-Chorus] Not giving up or burned out I still have hope But I won't lie to myself Not giving up or burned out I still have hope But I won't lie to myself [Chorus] We can't stay, but we'll never get away Stuck digging our own graves to live And if work doesn't pay, then we'll find another way 'Cause we haven't got a fuck to give [Verse] Work all your life for something That you'll never be allowed to reach When you find it amounts to nothing A lesson learned, too late to teach If you don't break the endless cycle Then your children will be next 'Cause when the system's rigged against us If you don't fight, it'll cost your neck [Pre-Chorus] Not giving up or burned out I still have hope But I won't lie to myself Not giving up or burned out I still have hope But I won't lie to myself [Chorus] We can't stay, but we'll never get away Stuck digging our own graves to live And if work doesn't pay, then we'll find another way 'Cause we haven't got a fuck to give [Bridge] The worst is over now So back to work Back the pub Back to school Back to church I hope we realise we've been sold a fucking lie About countless avoidable tragedies at the cost of countless lives [Chorus] We can't stay, but we'll never get away Stuck digging our own graves to live And if work doesn't pay, then we'll find another way 'Cause we haven't got a fuck to give We can't stay, but we'll never get away Stuck digging our own graves to live And if work doesn't pay, then we'll find another way 'Cause we haven't got a fuck to give [Outro] Won't lie to myself
