Lyrics

39,000 seconds (why am I here)

I made it through another day now
Before I know it I?ll be right back here
Staring at the clock wishing
For anything else but this

And the notion comes
As this goes so slow

Why am I here
I could make my break now
So unclear... why I choose to come back here

I took a look into the matter
Is it really all that bad
Working solely for the dollar
And the security that that brings
If I got another chance to make it, shake it, break it, fake it
I?ll take it when the next one comes

And it comes
And this goes so slow

Why am I here
I could make my break now
So unclear... why I choose to come back here
Why am I here
If a moment means so much then
Why am I here
For thirty-nine thousand seconds

And I?m beginning to think
That life might be just a life sentence
Listen to me there's got to be something better
Take a look and open your eyes
And ask yourself that very important question like

Why am I here
I could make my break now
So unclear why I choose to come back here
Why am I here
If a moment means so much then
Why am I here
For thirty-nine thousand seconds
Why
