Wake up in the morning
At the nine
Make your way through the traffic
And do it right
Put a smile on your face
And pretend that you're not dying inside

Buy and sell
Buying and selling babe
Buy and sell

I'm selling more than just services
I'm selling my soul
My tears, my bones, my blood
And it’s hard to manage
When you're giving all of you
In exchange for a distant view of paradise

I'm selling more than just services
I'm selling my soul
My tears, my bones, my blood
And it’s hard to manage
When you're giving all of you
In exchange for a distant view of paradise

Isn't this what we all are doing?
Living to pay bills
Fighting not to just be a number
Taking prescription pills
And it makes me wonder
If we are all lost in a haze

I'm selling my soul for a dream
We are selling our souls for our dreams
We are selling lives for money
I'm selling myself for a little view
So far away from my private heaven
