Carolyn Shulman - All Burned Out Lyrics

I wake up every day
Get my morning started the same old way
With my big cup of coffee and the news on tap
I start scrolling mindlessly
Through the headlines on a glowing screen
And I'm riding on a train down a one way track
I've got a million things to do
But every comment lights another fuse
And I'm just waiting for the world to change
While I'm sitting on the couch
Expecting better things while I'm shooting insults on a screen and
Fighting digital wars 'til I'm all burned out
'Til I'm all burned out
Oh, whoa, whoa
The hours go by so quick
In the black hole of one more click
Searching for our little dose of fame
Complaining endlessly
Shouting, "everyone, please look at me"
While we push our better selves out of the frame
Someone stop this ride we're on
It's a kamikaze ego bomb
And we're just waiting for the world to change
While we're sitting on the couch
Expecting better things while we're shooting insults on a screen and
Fighting digital wars 'til we're all burned out
'Til we're all burned out,
Oh, whoa, whoa
And it breaks my heart to know
This is all we've got to show
Can we dig ourselves out of this hole
We've got a lot of work to do
Aren't you tired of excuses, too
We can draw strength from a deeper well
We can't keep waiting for the world to change
While we're sitting on the couch
Expecting better things while we're shooting insults on a screen
And fighting digital wars 'til we're all burned out
'Til we're all burned out
Oh, whoa, whoa
It's just burning us out
Oh, whoa, whoa
Let's put the fires out
Oh, whoa, whoa
