1st Verse
It's nine o'clock in the morning...no money to my name.
I can't sleep...I just toss and turn...the feeling's always the same.
Jump out of bed... throw on some clothes...
The streets are calling my name...
To hustle some bucks...so I can buy a few dreams...
To keep from going insane...'cause...

Chorus
Once you get started...it's so hard to see
Yeah, once you get started...it's so hard to get free
What's come over me?

2nd Verse
I'm standing here on the outside...can't find my way back in...
I want to get straight...but it'll just have to wait...
I've started shaking again...
I don't know where I'm going...things ain't exactly clear...
I just want to know...where did everyone go?
And how did I get here? ...'cause

2nd Chorus
Once you get started...it's so hard to see...
Yeah, once you get started...it's so hard to get free...
It's got a hold on me.
