Killing Yourself to Live

Killing Yourself to Live is the fifth track off of Black Sabbath's fifth album Sabbath Bloody Sabbath.

Lyrics

 Well, people look and people stare
 Well, I don't think that I even care
 You work your life away and what do they give?
 You're only killing yourself to live
 
 Killing yourself to live
 Killing yourself to live
 
 Just take a look around you what do you see
 Pain, suffering and misery
 It's not the way that the world was planned
 It's a pity, you don't understand
 
 Killing yourself to live
 Killing yourself to live
 
 I'm telling you
 Believe in me
 Nobody else will tell you
 Open your eyes
 And see the lies, oh yeah
 
 (Smoke it, get high)
 You think that I'm crazy and, baby, I know that it's true
 Before that you know it I think that you'll go crazy too
 
 I don't know if I'm up or down
 Whether black is white or blue is brown
 The colors in my life are all different somehow
 Little boy blue's a big girl now
 
 So you think it's me who's strange
 But you've never had to make the change
 Never give your trust away
 You’ll end up paying 'til your dying day
