Lyrics

Slaving On

Have you grown up, now you've tasted the sun Are you still jaded, are you wasting for fun? You are a solider, with the future in your palm We're getting older, and you've chipped away your con Slaving on I never said you're mine Slaving on I'll never waste your time Slaving on I never said you're mine Slaving on I'm getting less from you than I have ever known There's so much more to you than threats have ever solved(?) If life is there to take, then clutch it with your hand You've sabotaged yourself, your exodus was planned Slaving on I never said you're mine Slaving on I'll never waste your time Slaving on I never said you're mine Slaving on I'll never waste your time Slaving on I never said you're mine Slaving on Never waste your time Slaving on Never said you're mine Slaving on
