lyrics
I'm like a broken record
And you've heard what I have to say before
But here it comes again
Cause I've been up three straight days
But I'm wide awake
And it's not easy living this way
I told you I'm not staying here
I'm writing this note
In response to everythign they say
You are one whose life is content
I'm not one of them
But you still think you know who I am
Constant reminders are running through my head
When will I end up where I want to be?
When I close my eyes, I see them standing there
Telling me I'll never make it
Keep your eyes on narrow paths
And you'll fall along the way
You walk the road you choose alone
When years pass and broken dreams are too far out of reach
You can't heal regret by running home
You'll have to suffer with answers unknown
Time is slipping through my hands
It's not on my side
I could take the easy way and give up
But would I be able to look myself in the eye
After living day after day in regret?
I remember you and I when we younger
I didn't think that we'd end up so different
But years have a way of turning ambitions
Against ambitious ones
And you've heard what I have to say before
But here it comes again
Cause I've been up three straight days
But I'm wide awake
And it's not easy living this way
I told you I'm not staying here
I'm writing this note
In response to everythign they say
You are one whose life is content
I'm not one of them
But you still think you know who I am
Constant reminders are running through my head
When will I end up where I want to be?
When I close my eyes, I see them standing there
Telling me I'll never make it
Keep your eyes on narrow paths
And you'll fall along the way
You walk the road you choose alone
When years pass and broken dreams are too far out of reach
You can't heal regret by running home
You'll have to suffer with answers unknown
Time is slipping through my hands
It's not on my side
I could take the easy way and give up
But would I be able to look myself in the eye
After living day after day in regret?
I remember you and I when we younger
I didn't think that we'd end up so different
But years have a way of turning ambitions
Against ambitious ones
