I've only found Nothing ever goes right The first time around And there's no progress in sight My feet touch ground yet my instinct's to crawl It's protocol I guess I know it's not too smart to compare but My hand is forced because I'm trailing the field How can I prove that I am more than a haircut? How do I know when my fate has been sealed? And as the debt gets bigger A deeper part of me gets the picture Meanwhile the gap grows wider I sacrifice my moral fiber Sometimes, sometimes you have to pull the lever I missed my cue but better late than never I cannot call myself a finished product I stare at the clock and wonder when I'll be whole How could I possibly defend all my conduct? How long should I relinquish control? And as the debt gets bigger A deeper part of me gets the picture Meanwhile the gap grows wider I sacrifice my moral fiber Sometimes, sometimes you have to clip the tether I missed my cue but better late than never As the divide gets longer I wonder what feats I still could conquer Meanwhile the wall grows higher My shoulder angel's a big fat liar Sometimes, sometimes you must ignore the tremor I took some time but better late than never
