Things I Tell Myself


Every time you try and think ahead
Whatever comes to mind is unreal
Would you settle for a little less
I don't think so
But you're better off if you forget
Whatever hardship you feel
And settle for a little less

Too many people said you had a shot
(Had a shot)
Somebody please make the enabling stop
(Make it stop)
It's time for you to wake
(Wake up)
Dont waste life on a dream

Too many people said you had a shot
(Had a shot)
Somebody please make the enabling stop
(Make it stop)
It's time for you to wake
(Wake up)
Dont waste life on a dream
any more

If you're never gonna break away
Would you be grateful
And find a way to lift the pain
I don't think so
Cus you're the loser of your favorite game
Go on wasting your prime
But find a way to lift pain

Too many people said you had a shot
(Had a shot)
Somebody please make the enabling stop
(Make it stop)
It's time for you to wake
(Wake up)
Dont waste life on a dream

Too many people said you had a shot
(Had a shot)
Somebody please make the enabling stop
(Make it stop)
It's time for you to wake
(Wake up)
Dont waste life on a dream
any more

When you're high up
Everyone seems so small
Made their minds up
Everyone you know
Will your time come
Or did it just pass us all
You're too high up you know

Too many people said you had a shot
(Had a shot)
Somebody please make the enabling stop
(Make it stop)
It's time for you to wake
(Wake up)
Dont waste life on a dream

Too many people said you had a shot
(Had a shot)
Somebody please make the enabling stop
(Make it stop)
It's time for you to wake
(Wake up)
Dont waste life on a dream
any more
