Poring over time before and after As the present moment fills with laughter I wonder why I just can't match the pace I'm caught up on the things that cut me deepest The things I've done and come to regret If only it would all just fade away Sometimes life feels like a cruel game Of running away from those who love you most And chasing those who don't but That doesn't seem to change how we waste our time Pushing away all those who hold us close And chasing those who don't It's my own fault I must admit it but That doesn't do much to change The overdose of pain I feel As I turn my back and walk away I let myself get lost in you And I just ended up lost I know what the cost is too I've known that from the start Tell me why it takes so long To realize that you're in the wrong
