lyrics

Keeping up
isn’t worth the air I waste
to be part of
a pack of fools I swear I hate.
And I can’t spend
another moment treading in a sea of shit
so deep I begin again.

I don’t want to be
mired knee-deep in failed ideas,
but I cannot see
myself doing anything but looking up.

I’ll find my own way.
I’ll do it how I want.
There’s nothing to be said.
This is all I want.
All I’ll say is I do want I want.

Keep your looks.
Don’t point them in my direction.
I’ll do mine.
You stick to your old routines.
And I can’t spend
another day standing under doubtful eyes
so blank I can’t begin again.

I don’t want to be
mired knee-deep in failed ideas,
but I cannot see
myself doing anything but looking up.

I’ll find my own way.
I’ll do it how I want.
There’s nothing to be said.
This is all I want.
And I can’t
say I’ll
succeed, but I’ll…
Well all I’ll say is I do want I want.
