Devils and angels on this old street.
22 years and I'm still asleep at home,
It's all that I've known.
Most of my friends have all moved away,
Gone off to college to find their weight in gold.
Back to the beginning again.
And we slave for a lifetime, for a lifetime.
There's nothing real on my TV screen.
It's all a network reality
And it shows in our broken home.
Most of my friends are all moving back
To a life less certain than yesterday.
It's a backwards step we made.
Back to the beginning again.
And we slave for a lifetime, we'll walk free in the end.
Back to the beginning again.
And we slave for a lifetime, for a lifetime.
That the last few years left us poor and here today?
Devils and angels on this old street.
Now they got the same secrets as you and me.
Let's open our doors, for the world to see.
Back to the beginning again.
But we slave for a lifetime, we'll walk free in the end.
Back to the beginning again.
And we slave for a lifetime.
Every day is a lifetime, it's a lifetime under the sun.
Every day is a lifetime, it's a lifetime.
