Grass Wouldn't Be Green Without A White Picket Fence

Grass Wouldn't Be Green Without A White Picket Fence

Get so numb,
Between hours of nine to five
Have to pinch myself...
Just to feel if I'm still alive,

Hard to believe...
I've been dreaming the American dream
To freedom chasers.....
That's hardly what it seems.

I've been the hungry.....
Poor washed ashore,
One of the sick and tired 
But I know what I'm fighting for.....

Yeah....I know what im fighting for.....

Haven't gone a day....
Without a voiced complaint,
Father time keeps laughing at me,
Mother nature's always crying rain,

Ever think it's useless
Loathing the same routine....
Seen too many bowed heads
Lookup and say, yeah...I know what you mean.

I've been the hungry....
Poor washed ashore,
Chasing tales in circles
At least I know what I'm fighting for,

I've been the hungry....
Poor washed ashore,
Life sacrificed
To believe in what I'm fighting for.

Yeah....I, know what I'm fighting for. ..
I know what I'm fighting for...
Know what I'm fighting for...
What I'm fighting....
Im fighting for....
Fighting for.........

"Ever think it's useless
Loathing the same routine....
Seen too many bowed heads
Look up and say, yeah...I know what you mean."
