lyrics

There's no way that I can possibly make this come true
But I still have to try
Waiting just to fail inevitably always do
Let the time pass me by

But who to blame when I've done my best and still can't make it
Why should I shame myself again?

When I'm on my way back home
Did it ever even seem that far?
While I'm sitting here in the background looking up at the pace car
When I'm on my way back home
Did it ever seem that hard?
While I'm sitting dreading the years to come and thoughts from the graveyard

Winning isn't something that I do much anymore
And I wish that I cared
Getting nothing out of holograms I once adored
Keeping well unprepared

But that's just life
When you show up late they show no mercy
And I was wrong to look for better

When I'm on my way back home
Did it ever even seem that far?
While I'm sitting here in the background looking up at the pace car
When I'm on my way back home
Did it ever seem that hard?
While I'm sitting dreading the years to come and thoughts from the graveyard

The time that I was promised
You left me, you left me
The lie I wish was honest
You left me hanging

The time that I was promised
You left me, you left me
The lie I wish was honest
You left me hanging

The time that I was promised
You left me, you left me
The lie I wish was honest
You left me hanging

The lies, the tricks. the schemes
The unending illusion
The voices calling
Institutional confusion

That's how we learn
When we grow up old and stay there tired
That's why we keep on moving forward

When I'm on my way back home
Did it ever even seem that far?
While I'm sitting here in the background looking up at the pace car
When I'm on my way back home
Did it ever seem that hard?
While I'm sitting dreading the years to come and thoughts from the graveyard
