The Right to Go Insane lyrics
by Megadeth
[Verse 1]
I barely get to the graveyard shift on time
After pulling another grueling nine to five
I live from credit card to check
The paper money's whirling by
And I hardly just, just barely, only just survive
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm living on the edge
Reality is teetering
My mind is on the brink
[Chorus]
How will I face the day tomorrow
If I can't make it through today?
I got nothing left to lose, but my sanity
And the right to go insane
[Post-Chorus]
I got nothing left to lose, but my mind
I got nothing left to choose
So I think I'll go insane
[Verse 2]
My stomach aches; insufficient funds
My cheeks are gaunt, my guts are overdrawn
My head pounds, starvation's given me the shakes
Too much squalor, too much pressure
And now I'm getting p*ssed
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm living on the edge
Reality is teetering
My mind is on the brink
[Chorus]
How will I face the day tomorrow
If I can't make it through today?
I got nothing left to lose, but my sanity
And the right to go insane
[Post-Chorus]
I got nothing left to lose, but my mind
I got nothing left to choose
So I think I'll go insane
[Instrumental Outro]
