I'm tied to the wheel
The road curves ahead
Well I missed my turn
I'll take the next one instead
I'm losing in stride
And tired at best
But I played my cards
Too close to the chest
You feel yourself falling
The future is stalling
And paused at a bad time
Well I learned a lesson
I'm never forgetting I didn't realize
It feels like my head is spinning
And draining into the ocean
And this is a new beginning
I feel all of my pain in slow motion
The timing is bad
The feelings are worse
But you can pretend
That this doesn't hurt
And you chose your path
Right into a wall
So hollow it seems
No victory at all
I said I'd keep trying
I might have been lying
I barely remember now
Well it wasn't worth it
Uselessly hurting
Perpetually lost til now
When everyone knows the secret
And you haven't got a notion
Someday I will learn the meaning
Digesting the truth in slow motion
