Lyrics

Anymore

The sun in the east, drags me from my bed
Another day older, another day of regret
The smell of this city has gotten in my head
I’m not doing this – any more.

Another day of work, another day on the rack.
Spinning my wheels, and falling off track
Ain’t no job ever gonna love you back
I’m not doing this – anymore.

Gotta find me blue skies
Gotta find me peace of mind
Gotta find me a place to fly
I’m not doing this – any more

There’s a place out there, not just in my mind
A space out there, where I can find
The freedom to be who I want to be
I’m not doing this – any more.

[chorus] then tags
NO! Not any more.
(retard)
Not anymore.
