This Kills Me - CG Lyrics

Closer to extinction, further down the line
Sits a man afraid, outnumbered in his mind
He can see the faintest writing on the wall
With no one to dissuade him
He's waiting for the fall and it's okay

Brightest of the highest, going it alone
Her effort never worked out, contented to the bone

She said, every time I've been defined
I didn't know how to square it in my mind
I didn't know how to step up to the plate
And take a look at anything in any state
I never knew the time was right when it was right
I didn't know how to live, just to survive
I never knew how to step up to the plate
And take a look at anything in any state
And it's OK
It's OK if you've wandered this way

So now we face the mounting problems of the day
That had a real solution, but we let it slip away
And no one seems to notice, no one seems to care
A part of us was missing, but now it isn't there
And it's ok

I know because every time I've been defined
I didn't know how to square it in my mind
I didn't know how to step up to the plate
And take a look at anything in any state
And it's ok
