I'm giving away all the things that made me stay
The mediocrity and a life that's too concrete
You know me, bent on complacency
I've had it up to here with a life that's filled with fear
So here's to better years

Wasted hours, they turn into weeks
I'm wasting my time and I'm slurring my speech
It's all true, I'm hiding my bruises
I'm burning out and making excuses
Familiar bar, familiar job
Familiar reasons I forgot to let you know
It's time to go

I'm giving away all the things that made me stay
The mediocrity and the life concrete
And the hopeless goals I won't complete
You know me, bent on complacency
I've had it up to here with a life that's filled with fear
So here's to better years

The city spings and I'm stuck on the ground
It's tough to stomach and I can't hold it down
My vision is hazy
I'm bored and I'm lazy
It's more than a maybe
And it's driving me crazy
Do I give this one more shot
Is this everything I've got
Oh no - we'll never know

It seems like every night I'm running out of time
I can't forgive myself for the days I spent inside
Killing time is killing me
It's harder than it used to be
Is there a happy end to the blood and sweat?
I guess we'll wait and see

And it's all clear
If patience doesn't sell
You might as well do this for yourself - no one else
