Right now's the problem
'Cause I'm shooting blanks again
Something comes to twist me
And I'm getting weak again

Still disappointed
I'm choking on the past
This is just a wash-out
I'm waiting to (be last?)
Can I just pretend?
Can I just pretend?
I'll hack the sides away
I went ahead and hacked the sides away
Without respect to age


My time is shining
And I'm clocking up again
Attempts to be impressive
Left me clocking up again
Can I just pretend?
Can I just pretend?
I chop the sides away
I went ahead and chopped the sides away
This is how you (fade?)

Coughing it up to the man (2x)
Coughing it up for the man (3x)

Look at (?)
I feel like dancing
This time is changing
