Lyrics
At the first bell of the day
At the beginning of the day
They rise up from where they lay
People get up from where they were resting
And look down with the promise in their hands
They assess their situation with a commitment in their hands
A promise to get out
A commitment to escape or improve their circumstances
This ain't what it's all about
The current situation is not the essence of life
There's always lots of reasons for their plans
Various justifications exist for their plans
When that golden sun shines through
When the sun rises, opportunities arise
There's always one more thing to do
There is always an additional task to be done
Just one more stab into the wishing well
Another attempt to fulfill desires
That's what they always say
This is a common expression of intent
I'm getting out
Expressing a desire to break free
That's what they always say
Reiterating the common desire to escape
Ain't that just what they always say
Highlighting the predictability of such statements
That's what they always say
Repeating the commonly heard expression
Just one more little thing left in my way
An obstacle remains to be overcome
That's what they always say
Reiterating the common expression of intent
Ain't that just what they always say
Emphasizing the predictability of such statements
I'm getting out, I'm holding on
Expressing determination to break free
I'm hanging in, the time is wrong
Enduring despite unfavorable circumstances
And every morning brings another reason
Each morning brings new motivation
A piece of cake, no lion share
A small reward, not the majority
Just one more dice and you'll be there
Success is achievable with one more attempt
That golden bridge is just around the bend
Success is within reach
That's what they always say
Reiterating the common expression of intent
I'm getting out
Expressing the desire to escape
That's what they always say
Reiterating the common desire to break free
Ain't that just what they always say
Emphasizing the predictability of such statements
That's what they always say
Repeating the commonly heard expression
Just one more little thing left in my way
An obstacle remains to be overcome
That's what they always say
Reiterating the common expression of intent
Ain't that just what they always say
Emphasizing the predictability of such statements
Tomorrow is another day
Expressing optimism for a new day
The money junkie fades away
The influence of materialism diminishes
That golden bridge is just around the bend
Success is within reach
That's what they always say
Reiterating the common expression of intent
I'm getting out
Expressing the desire to escape
That's what they always say
Reiterating the common desire to break free
Ain't that just what they always say
Emphasizing the predictability of such statements
That's what they always say
Repeating the commonly heard expression
Just one more little thing left in my way
An obstacle remains to be overcome
That's what they always say
Reiterating the common expression of intent
Ain't that just what they always say
Emphasizing the predictability of such statements
