Another day slips away, suffocates the flame
I do all i can to keep my head straight
Second guess and lay awake
So scared i've made another mistake
2 dead end jobs, a white picket fence
A slew of blazoned words, "That's just the way it is."
We're just pawns in a losing game
This might be your dream but we're not the same
This doubt is like the Devil living on my back
Show ambition, get showered with regret
Pull the thread and let it come undone
Watch the pins fall 1 by 1
This doubt is just a product of the nerve I lacked
The second guessing, like a rope around my neck
Pull the thread and let it come undone
Watch the pins fall 1 by 1
Well adept at the vapid grind
The bleak self doubt wells up inside
My heart says pull the trigger, cut and run
Instead I fight this war inside my head
I'm falling faster now
Into a sea of doubt
The weight is crashing down
I won't let you watch me drown
