Lyrics:

He's got a big gold ring what says 'Jesus Saves'
And it's dented from the punch thrown at work that day
When he smashed the metal locker where he kept his things
After the big boss said, 'You best be on your way'

Oh yeah, so this life is sacrifice
Oh yeah, jumpin' trains just to survive

Well, his wife and kid are sleepin' but he's still awake
On his brain weighs the curse of thirty bills unpaid
Gets up, lights a cigarette he's grown to hate
Thinkin' if he can't sleep, how will he ever dream?

Yeah, so this life is sacrificed
Oh yeah, to a stranger's bottom line

Oh yeah, I've seen the light
Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh
I'm scared alive, near to death
Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh
I've seen the light, scared alive


Yeah, so this life is sacrificed
Oh yeah, was a dream that had to die

Oh yeah, I've seen the light
Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh
I'm scared alive, near to death
Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh
I've seen the light, scared alive

Uh-oh oh oh, oh-oh
I'm near to death, here to die, scared alive
Near to death, here to die, scared of life
