Tension - Avenged Sevenfold

i wake up every morning, bright and early
roll out of bed but i'm never quite alone
tension is pulling me in all directions
and i'll be done once you use me as a rope
sometimes the pressure will just drive you crazy
at any time i could explode
i need some piece of mind, it's got me tired
don't wanna lose it, but i'm turning down that road

i need a moment 'cause i've spread myself to thin
we all need a moment in our lives
work's hard, the days too long
and that's just where it begins
tension has had us all this time

i sit in traffic every single morning 

just as i arrive, i'm slaving to the grind 

making the money so i feed my family 

but i can't raise them, 'cause i ain't got the time 

i got no free days on my busy schedule 

i turn the page and it's the same 

don't like my situation, you don't either 

don't wanna look back scared, i'll work it all away 

i need a moment 'cause i've spread myself to thin 

we all need a moment in our lives 

work's hard, the days too long 

and that's just where it begins 

tension has had us all this time 

but every now and then 

i drive alone 

and over all 

hot summer days 

a gentle breeze that feels alright 

home alone 

and i can't feel no pain 

only strain 

enjoy the sights 

i feel alive 

well actually here just feels alright 

far from home 

i need a moment 'cause i've spread myself to thin 

we all need a moment in our lives 

work's hard, the days too long 

and that's just where it begins 

tension has had us all this time
