Right now I think I'll pay attention to everybody else but me For once I'm here and I feel so awkward; I cannot let this be Today is said and done, tomorrow's just begun, And now I've taken a life forsaken and turned it into one So set me up for the worst, there's nothing left here that hurts Could I be wrong and I will move on if you rid me of this curse I've given all I can, and if what I know won't stand, Then please help me out 'cause I've got a feeling the answer's in my hand
And I don't even know why, this life seems to pass me by With every waking day brings another one in, but not to stay
So I'm taking the part of me that stands in your way And saying goodbye to the yesterday Now we're taking the part of us that feels like it's half past forever, And this time it's now or never
So by now you think I'd learn my lesson from watching everyone but me This empty feeling made up of meaning means something more than the dream So every now and then, in this recycle bin, The things you thought were a grave departure have come to life again But it's always wearing thin and it's making my head spin So I'll cut my losses short 'cause I guess I'll never win If this isn't meant to be then what more can I foresee; A change for now, but I think forever has come to set me free
And I don't even know why, this life seems to pass me by With every waking day brings another one in, but not to stay
So I'm taking the part of me that stands in your way And saying goodbye to the yesterday Now we're taking the part of us that feels like it's half past forever, And this time it's now or never
