I've rummaged through the dirt
And found old shit mixed with golden shards
You're always going to get that
No matter which geographical part
And when you stare at the stars
There always seems to be a brightest one
But it's just the same as the others
It's just right in front of your eyes
I won't let it hold me back
I won't let it distract me from anything
I won't lose momentum
We've got to keep this thing ticking
I've heard a lot of words
They all make sense but they have no heart
You never really notice
Until some come along as sharp as a dart
Just when you thought you were smart
Just when you thought you were the brightest one
You're just the same as the others
You were just top of mind
We've got to keep this thing ticking
I won't let it hold me back
I won't let it distract me from anything
We've got to keep this thing ticking
I won't lose momentum
I won't let it hold me back
I won't let it distract me from anything
We've got to keep this thing ticking
I won't lose momentum
I won't lose momentum
We've got to keep this thing ticking
