Life slips by and I'm losing time
I feel left out and I need a sign
My folks tell me that I'm in my prime
But I've been too long on the borderline
I look around at the other guys
To see myself looking through their eyes
But the truth ain't there, just a pack of lies
And each wasted word makes a wasted line
I left myself behind, the years have not been kind
To anyone but you, don't tell me that's not true
I left myself behind, I overstepped the line
I blame it all on you, the only thing to do
I slipped up every time, I thought that I should try
To think of something else but the year's gone rolling by
Four lost souls, watch their ship capsize
A mighty voice growing up asides
And you can't escape the resounding cry
And the feeling that you're next in line
So breathe in deep and take your time
Unlock yourself from your own very mind
Because the curtain drops each time you try
To make your way across the bottom line
I left myself behind, the years have not been kind
To anyone but you, don't tell me that's not true
I left myself behind, I overstepped the line
I blame it all on you, the only thing to do
I slipped up every time, I thought that I should try
To think of something else but the year's gone rolling by
