Close Behind

I'm running but I'm still behind
I look at you ahead of me
You've got it made served on a plate
I wonder if there's a use in trying
You don't care about anyone
& I try to see through your eyes
I try to understand your lies
I thought it was you that was breathing

There's nothing to be said about the way I'm living & the things I see
There's no way out of here
You've got me where you want me to be
Close Behind

Whatever you want me to say
But I can't lie can't even try
You've got it made served on a plate
& I can run trying to follow you
No matter how hard I could try
There's no way that I'll ever fly
& without looking I know you're laughing
& I'm just one of those human beings

I thought I was gonna give up
But something told me I shouldn't stop
Who cares if I make it or not?
It had been way too long since I found myself home to be alone
My heart hasn't turned to stone
