I used to drive on the fast lane Now on the sidelines I remain Holding on to the things that keep me sane To what I know is still true December came with darkness and a grin To remind us of the beasts that lie within This time the snow feels different on my skin And there is nothing I can do And so I wandered through All my life not knowing what to do Not knowing where to be So here I’ll stay Digressing needlessly I don’t care how things were supposed to be How things were supposed to be My head is sore, and I’m tired of counting sheep I close my eyes but I still can't fall sleep These empty promises I know you'll never keep Still they're the reason I’m awake Days just pass me by As I watch them all fade away Up the river I see a light But the stream goes the other way Whats the point in all the rush? When did things get so out of hand? I just wanna punch a hole in the hourglass And play with the sand And so I wandered through All my life not knowing what to do Not knowing where to be So here I’ll stay Digressing needlessly I don’t care how things were supposed to be How things were supposed to be I’ll just punch a hole in the hourglass And play with the sand
