Working on the Side Songtext
von Winhill/Losehill

I′ve been working on the side of the road
I've heard the ocean and the waves that roll
It sounds like music and it heals your soul
But it means nothing, it means nothing
You don′t know what it took me to get
Easy money didn't bring me here
I've been walking down by the sea
The spray is so cold
I′ve been working with a growing pain
Even if you don′t ever learn it's name
I′ve been working with a sigh in my heart
In your life they hold you to your past
I've been working on a bargain
You know it′s allowed
But you know it's all wrong
It seems like trouble will snowball


Morning when it′s cold out there
You lose your money and your dignity
I'd been working for a ticket north
I've been working, I′ve been working
A hundred persons, a tiny boat
Somewhere out mid-sea the overload
I don′t know how I swam to shore
I took a night bus further north
If I keep running I'll never grow old
You lose your papers, you′re no one
But show some money
And they might let you go
I've been waking
In a tunnel
Of nightmares
I′ve been working in the light of day
People like you say to do what they tell
I'm just calling in respons to your ad
Cleaning your bedrooms
I′ve been working on the side of the road
If i keep running I'll never grow old
But soon you'll see
