Lyrics

[Verse 1]
No friends, no dreams, no pocket money
[Verse 2]
There's a wall around my body
A fence around my kind
Nothing comes to me easily
Not leastwise peace of mind
Still, I keep movin'
Tryin' to break on through
I don't know nothing else to do
[Verse 3]
Peelin' paint above my head
Is just another sign
Black clouds in the distance
Gettin' closer all the time
I gotta keep movin'
Tryin' to break on through
I don't know nothing else to do
[Verse 4]
Sometimes when I think that things
Are bad as they can be
I see a fella standing
Lower down on the ladder than me
[Verse 5]
Now I'm alive and kickin'
(No friends, no dreams)
Dust behind my heel
(No pocket money)
Long as I got my soul
I'm on the good end of the deal
[Verse 6]
And I'm gonna keep movin'
Tryin' to break on through
I don't know nothing else to do
I gotta keep movin'
[Verse 7]
No friends, no dreams, no pocket money
So, I'm gonna keep movin'
No pocket money
