|
You, you try, you try to get by. |
|
You're never going to pull it off |
|
You shouldn't even try |
|
You're a wet cigarette |
|
You're always second best |
|
but they're never going to give a shit about anybody but themselves. |
|
So you fight for them to realize; |
|
there's more to life, |
|
there's more to you, |
|
there's more than meets the eye. |
|
And when you're done, the battle's been won. |
|
You sit back, you smile and this is what you hum, |
|
you hum: ....12341234.... The years go by, |
|
the time it does fly. |
|
Every single second is a moment in time that passes oh, |
|
so quick and it seems like nothing, |
|
but when you're looking back, |
|
well it amounts to everything. |
|
I've got myself. I've got my friends. |
|
I've got my little family, |
|
but that's not where it ends. |
|
This one goes out to you, |
|
it goes out to everyone. |
|
It's in the name of honesty because life has just begun. |
|
.... 12341234.... Look around little brother, |
|
Can you tell me what you see? |
|
You're a big boy now, |
|
so take responsibility. |
|
You never had it hard, |
|
but now it's getting tough, |
|
so you whine, whine, |
|
whine and you say you've had enough. |
|
You say i'm full of shit That i'm a hypocrite I shouldn't talk, |
|
when i can't take the advice that i give? |
|
Well maybe you're right, |
|
but open your eyes: the main difference here is that i try, try, try. |
