The Final Score
What Makes Me Think I Can Win This Time?
seriously.. it never stops...
just when I think I got it right
something comes up and it's nothing but wrong...
I keep telling myself, my day is sure to come...
maybe I passed it by...
walking with blinders on a night I should have saw...
I keep telling myself...
it's never to late
yet the clock is unforgiving and my life
well, becoming much of the same...
I tell myself.. it's not what it appears...
give it time and it will all be clear...
things will settle...
dust will clear...
but how many days...? how many years...?
do I hold on again.... just to throw years away?
nine in all, in the past, for something that just remained the same...
What's so different this time?
really, not that much...
really, not that much....
It's nothing but a waiting game...
I can't see the score but I hear the buzzer blare...
Yet the tug at the heart is there...
just not aware from my clouded emotions
if the tug is really the heart... or is it a love of the game?
On the field, playing a game, I am all too aware of...
know the score, yet can't see it...
hear the buzzers but no final play...
and my mind keeps on spinning...
in a dramatic way
I swear I'm going to lose it...
lost all control...
