(I realize) All I want All I need Always lies just out of reach I've been coming up empty
(I realize) I ran as fast as I can run I pushed as hard as anyone But still there's nothing for me
(And I want) I've tried as hard as I can (And I need) I've taken all I can stand (And I fall) But I am running a race Against myself Against myself, yeah
(I realize) Burning out, strung along Now my sorrow is my song My whole world is half-hearted
(I realize) For my pain I have none After all is said and done Now I'm back where I started
(And I want) I've gone as far as I can (And I need) I've taken all I can stand (And I fall) But I am running a race Against myself Against myself, yeah
(And I want) I've tried as hard as I can (And I need) I've taken all I can stand (And I fall) But I am losing the race Against myself Against myself, yeah
