Lyrics

Can I be surrounded by the things that I love
Will I ever have that opportunity
I need acknowledgement for the things that I?ve done
I know I could convince them if I had them in a room with me
Can?t you see

My time is passing by
And I never thought I?d see
Assuming that I?m guilty of my own reality
I know I have to pass the blame
Or else they?ll just blame me

Proving my suspicions or following blind faith
I?m stuck with another of last year?s waifs
And now I?ve got another story to tell
It?s just as well
They can all go to hell
Nobody bothers to look around
Or wonder what could be found
So I guess I?m running backwards all alone
If only you could understand
Perhaps you could get past all that?s known

Telling me I?m acting so insincere
Why I?m so unhappy for all of my peers
I guess they started out ahead of their time
Or at the head of the line
And now they?re doing just fine

How do you measure success with a calculating hand
This isn?t what?s expected
It isn?t what I planned
And if I crawl into that space that you call a mind
I wonder what I?d look for
I wonder what I?d find
And now you?re giving all of the all of the signs
I wonder what I?d look for inside your kind
Inside that mind
It?s all behind
You?ve crossed the line
