I'm falling behind
I'm losing my mind
I spend all of my days
Watching the sun shine
I'm burning a candle
At both ends
Fascinated by the fire
Waiting for friends
You're crossing my path
You're getting in my way
If i was a black cat
This wouldn't be your day
You catch it on camera
You put it away
You save it all up
For some rainy day
To sling some mud into
An open wound
We play this game and
They all stay tuned
Some call it a game
Some call it a race
I got my position by favor
And I'm not losing my place
Keep the gates closed
Keep the peasants out
Keep the gates closed
And hold your ground
