Routine
Stand High Patrol Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Routine every day, it's depressing
Routine everywhere, day after day

Today, I get up of bed on the wrong side
I have to go to work, it's time
I feel like a machine
Frustration is growing
I would like to stop that but I can't
I've to pay the rent
I've to pay the food
I can't even sleep at night

Routine every day, it's depressing
Routine everywhere, day after day
Routine every day, it's depressing
Routine everywhere, day after day

It's raining for two months
Bills are piling up on the table
The boiler is broken
And I am freezy

Routine every day, it's depressing
Routine everywhere, day after day
Routine every day, it's depressing
Routine everywhere, day after day

We gonna hit rock bottom
We gonna hit rock bottom
We gonna hit rock bottom
We gonna hit rock bottom





Routine, routine
Routine, routine

cette chanson me rapelle beaucoup le son qui TUE "I'm hanging on" de VIVIAN WITHERS.
je dis pas du tout que c'est la meme ou que c'est du plagiat,
juste je sens un parallelisme dans l'ambiance, les paroles etc...
