[Verse 1] Clocking in Making waves Pushing buttons Getting paid Inside drama Starts to sour You’re being broken By the hour [Chorus] You cry for peace, somebody You try to stop the onward Productive march You try to slow, but they keep wanting more Your peace of mind, your body Your broken dreams, your hobbies Golden Handcuffs Even when you’re home, you’re never alone There’s no unplugging [Verse 2] Times are hard When you’re not home Life moves on But you don’t And the weekend You’re just thinking About when Monday comes Instead of living [Chorus] You cry for peace, somebody You try to stop the onward Productive march You try to slow, but they keep wanting more Your peace of mind, your body Your broken dreams, your hobbies Golden Handcuffs Even when you’re home, you’re never alone There’s no unplugging [Bridge] Do you know your reflection if you looked in the mirror From all the stress over all those years? The retirement they’ll just take away Better to live for yourself Starting today [Chorus] You cry for peace, somebody You try to stop the onward Productive march You try to slow, but they keep wanting more Your peace of mind, your body Your broken dreams, your hobbies Golden Handcuffs Even when you’re home, you’re never alone There’s no unplugging
