Race Against Myself

All I want

All I need

Always lies just out of reach

I've been coming up empty



I've ran as fast

As I can run

I pushed as hard as anyone

Still there's nothing for me



I've tried as hard as I can

I've taken all I can stand

But I am running a race

Against myself



Burning out

Strung along

Now my sorrow is my song

My whole world is half-hearted



For my pain

I have none

After all is said and done

Now I'm back where I started



I've gone as far as I can

I've taken all I can stand

But I am running a race

Against myself



I've tried as hard as I can

I've taken all I can stand

But I am loosing the race

Against myself
