Eight Hours

Bully Boss

Feels like a wide open space, the other side of this bed

Can't stand this reality so I choose my ego instead

Arrive at work and enter with a strong proud stride

Don't let them see I am scared and lonely inside

Here everything feels right, they are all under me

Makes me feel I could rule the world eventually

I have already picked out my victims, my stepping stones

My footprint on their head helps me reach my throne

A person of importance inside the walls of this place

My failures are many but at least I won this race

Personal life is empty so I get drunk on these powers

Validate my existence for these eight hours

I take from the world what I was never given

Disguise the child as someone who is driven.
